My essay, "Dog and Wolf: the Time Between," which appeared first in Southern Humanities Review and was later included in an anthology of North Carolina writers (27 Views of Wilmington), was is in Best American Essays 2016. My thanks to Aaron Alford and Chantel Acevedo.
Pushcart Prize Nomination from Southern Humanities Review.
With deep thanks to Southern Humanities Review for nominating "Between Dog and Wolf: the Time Between (Essay as Ideolocator)" for the upcoming edition of the Pushcart Prize--and to Aaron Alford who worked so attentively with me on the edits. Please check out the amazing work of the other nominees.
Flower Gathering with "Between Dog and Wolf."
Happily joining a group of fearsomely talented writers who call the Port City home and who will be featured in the upcoming anthology, 27 Views of Wilmington, part of a series put out by Eno Publishers. Other city view anthologies feature giants like Holly Reid, Fred Chappell, Allan Gurganus, Randall Kenan, and Lee Smith.
An expanded version of my essay, 'Between Dog and Wolf (Essay as Ideolocator),' previously published in Southern Humanities Review will be included. It's been an absolute pleasure to work with Eno, and the brilliant Elizabeth Woodman in particular.
Stay tuned for details about a launch party and signing in October of 2015. I'm remembering that the etymology of 'anthology' comes from the Greek 'anthologia' and means literally 'flower-gathering.'
