Today’s P’s and my wedding anniversary, which makes it kind of weird that my story about a woman grieving the death of her artist husband appears on Hobart’s website today. I am so very lucky to have my partner. I am so very sad for my character Evie. But she works through it, with the (not-so-great) help of Hades, a new lover’s overeagerness, and the clearing of a room that allows her to get back to herself.
Read “Liars” (say the name out loud; you might hit upon the double meaning) for free at Hobart.
I’m thrilled to announce that all the Art & Words participants for 2017 have been chosen! We received a huge number of submissions, most of them great, most of them (surprisingly) poetry (which is fine with me!). In the end, guest Editor Isabel Crespo and I whittled it down to 12, with a significant focus on local writers.
The Art & Words Show will be on Saturday, October 7, 2017 at Art on the Boulevard in Fort Worth, Texas. I hope to see you there.

Today’s been a happy day; I’ve been in the Dallas Morning Newsand Art & Seekfor my Nebula nomination (along with my fellow DFW-area friend William Ledbetter).
Also, Layla Al-Bedawi wrote a lovely article about Art & Words for ArtHoustonthat was recently posted online. Submissions open tomorrow, and I am thrilled to see this write-up.
