Greetings. The blog has been moved slightly to adjust to the MyCommunityNow locations. Click here to find the new Fiction Blog! I'll also try to post on this spot as well, just to make sure people stay in touch. Cheers.
I've been reading a lot from Redivider, a literary journal housed at Emerson College (and I have every intention of submitting a short story to it sometime in the near future). It's a really impressive journal, very entertaining with some great...
This is a short-short story by Amelia Gray found in the newest issue of American Short Fiction. ASF is a great magazine for those of you who enjoy a broad range of fiction, and welcome a pretty decent amount of experimentation, the type of stuff you might...
I happened upon Kevin Brockmeier at a local Barnes and Noble, where I promptly digested his entire new short story collection, The View From the Seventh Layer (Vintage Contemporaries) . It was an absolutely fantastic book, well worth reading. And so I...

Well, here we go! It's time for the weekend homework, and this week I'm going to provide you with a number of links to Web sites that you can use again and again. I'll try and do this again in the future, but for now, this will give you a...
