New fiction for the reading

My new short story, "Marv's 11 Steps," is now up at anderbo.com.

Anderbo.com is edited by Rick Rofihe, who was generous with his time and comments on this piece. I cannot vouch for whether he is like an owl, as this interview attests, but if that means wise, then yes.

This character, Marv, appeared last summer during the Advanced Institute of the Hoosier Writing Project. I spent a week with other writing teachers, and each day we wrote, discussed writing and teaching, and learned a million and one new things. And we wrote. Whatever we wanted. For hours on end. Which to some may sound like pulling teeth, but to me is like getting to eat candy all day, every day, with no dental repercussions.
