“Find the key emotion; this may be all you need know to find your short story.”
- F. Scott Fitzgerald
“When Apathy Comes Knocking (It Will Come Back)”
Symbolism for a hundred dangers weave through this fantastical warning. As our characters find out, what you let through your door…
It will come back.
“Loving the Weary Traveler”
One of the short stories of which I’m proudest, full of loss, reflection, and redemption. Largely inspired, of course, by Hozier lyrics (as great fiction often is).
