WORK

Please note: I have been writing and publishing for a long time; some of these journals have ceased publication or go back a while. Copies of pieces appearing in print journals or out-of-print works available upon request. I write fiction, nonfiction, and poetry (not necessarily in order of importance), so please scroll if you don’t initially see the genre that interests you. You can no doubt tell in which years I was situated to write.
