This post does not bring “new” news, but I wanted to document this wonderful event here….
On November 15, 2015 I had the pleasure of reading an excerpt from my memoir to a packed house at The Word Barn in Exeter, New Hampshire. Also reading that afternoon was Peter Anderson, this year’s George Bennett Fellow at Phillips Exeter Academy. It was such a treat to read alongside Peter in this space that has been created by poet, teaching colleague, and friend, Sarah Anderson. Through The Silo Series at The Word Barn, Sarah brings together readers and writers who are passionate about the power of literature in our lives.
To learn more about The Word Barn and the reading, check out this article: A Word Barn Raising.
The piece I read, “The Gun Show,” has been accepted by The Southeast Review and will be out this spring in their next print issue. I am very grateful this piece has found a home at SER.
