This year I signed up for the NYC Midnight Flash Fiction Challenge. I think it is the same challenge I wrote for last year but the name changed. In any case, this weekend is round two, so I plan to be writing. I really like my round one story, and it scored respectably, so hopefully…

Honorable Mention for “The Art of the Bargain”

I just received my copy of News from the Raven: Essays from Sam Houston State University on Medieval and Renaissance Thought.
