Fiction to be published in Scribble

Â Â

"Prewitt's Plans," a story from TRACKS, my novel in stories, has been accepted for publication in Scribble Magazine.

Scribble is a print literary journal published in Maryland.Â Although it is produced and distributed by an independent publisher, it is the official publication of the Maryland Writers' Association.

"Prewitt's Plans" is the opening story to TRACKS, my novel in stories.Â It follows Prewitt's struggle with his life plans as he boards a train in Baltimore, headed for Chicago, and debates whether he's headed in the right direction.

Look for "Prewitt's Plans" in the next edition of Scribble later this season. Â
