The online journal The Normal School published my short story The Antipodal Point of Fear. It is available to read here. This is a story in my childhood series exploring the lives of American children. This story explores the ever-present and overwhelming fears a child has throughout his day and the extreme measure he takes to escape that which overwhelms him. Thanks to the folks at The Normal School for the editing of this piece and their willingness to publish it. I hope you enjoy it.
Owning Scars: My Newest Published Story
The online journal The Write Launch published my short story Owning Scars. It is available to read here. I am very pleased that they accepted this one and quite happy to see it in print. While on a hike with his sister, the main character in the story experiences flashbacks which he fears reveal a darker side to his personality, a side he does not remember existing. With the help of his sister, and the increasingly disturbing flashbacks, he comes face to face with the ghost of who he was and his harmful actions long since buried. Here is the beginning as presented by The Write Launch. Thanks for reading.
