Next Sunday, I and a
group of far more talented writers, will be reading at the Dallas Noir at the
Bar at The Wild Detectives. Things kick off at 7:30 PM. If you are in the Dallas area,
I hope you come on out and see us.
For my part, I will be
reading an excerpt from my short story, The Hospital Boomerang, published in
the anthology, Larceny & Last Chances: 22
Stories of Mystery & Suspense. Published by Superior Shores Press,
edited by Judy Penz Sheluk, the read is available in both print and digital
formats at Amazon and
other vendors.
My short story is a Texas based crime
fiction tale set in a small town. Our narrator is a bit bitter and has
gone through some things over the years. He also has a bit of a sarcastic
streak as he narrates the story.
If you can’t make it out, or just want
to whet your appetite for it, I posted an excerpt from it earlier this year here
on my blog.
I also discussed the story and what I
was trying to do in it at Art Taylor’s The First Two Pages back in June. You
can read that piece here.
Folks that have read it, seemed to
like the story, as it has gotten positive praise. That includes author Rob
Lopresti who reviewed it on his Little
Big Crimes blog.
I hope to see you there.
