A CAPELLA ZOO
My story POGUE appears in the latest A capella Zoo, both print and online. The story, an excerpt from my novel-in-progress, deals with an island at war with itself, a cloaked sect, grog, war, and delusion.

Check out what the New Yorker blog had to say about my entry (below) in Nathan Bransford's "Opening Paragraph" contest, in which I was a finalist.
HELIOPHOBIA
My heliophobia support group met in an old schoolhouse whose main doors had been welded shut and painted blue. You entered around back, up the Z-shaped wheelchair ramp. I’d been attending for years and knew every hall and every stairwell in that place, even saw the belfry once, having shimmied up a ladder hidden in the supply closet. Nothing up there but dust and bird shit and some failed eggs, not even a bell. Just wooden slats through which the sun broke like streaky clown tears. Which didn’t scare me. It’s not that any of us feared the sun, it wasn’t that simple. We simply loathed its intentions. We had already betrayed its destiny and, like everything else in our lives, it was born just to expire.
