Good stuff update

1. I'll have a series of short-shorts in the newest print issue of PANK, which should be out in the Spring of 2014. They're about television and loneliness.
2. Five Chapters will publish my story "Let Them Down Slowly" next spring as well. It will be serialized over the course of a week. Tons of my favorite writers have published there--including Ethan Rutherford, Aimee Bender, and Sam Lipsyte.
3. Today I won North Carolina State University's James Hurst Prize in Fiction for an as-of-now unpublished piece called "The Dog Upstairs." The formidable Rebecca Lee judged.  Thanks to NCSU and Ms. Lee for this honor.
4. I saw and photographed a lizard, which was also pretty cool.
5. The latest issue of PINBALL is building steam. Look for an amazing batch of short stories (and comics! maybe some non-fiction!) coming your way later this year.
