Stories on Stage

Sacramento's newest monthly reading series, hosted by Valerie Fioravanti, Stories on Stage, debuted on January 29 at the Sacramento Poetry Center, and featured Jodi Angel's "The Skin from the Muscle" (read by actor William Kay) and Naomi Williams' "Snow Men" (read by actor Cynthia Mitchell Speakman).

The series will run on the last Friday of each month, and my own story, "Old Will Road," (which originally appeared in Narrative Magazine in May 2009) will be featured on April 30. Would love it if you'd pop in for a listen.

More details to come...

"Old Will Road" Hits Narrative Magazine

I think there are maybe three people I haven't yet told about my short story, "Old Will Road," featured as a Story of the Week in Narrative magazine. It hit the site on Mother's Day, and will remain accessible all of this week from their home page. (After that, click on the archives link and search for my name, down there at the bottom of the "T"s.)

Thanks to everyone for the wonderful emails and comments. I love that you love the story, and yes, I promise to give serious thought to giving these characters a permanent home via a novel.
