Walking with Ghosts With this new project, I am undertaking to write a book-length, hybrid work of fiction, poetry, and art connecting Civil War history with current issues. The story follows a young woman, Kebbeh, as she struggles to forge her own future. Returning to her family home in Gettysburg in the summer of 2017, after deciding to drop out of her college journalism program, Kebbeh comes into contact with a number of characters who were living at the time of the Civil War and have unfinished business to attend to. Recently Completed At Home in Fermanagh & Omagh: A Literary Atlas A compendium of poetry and prose by writers in Northern Ireland, including ten new works of mine. Published and distributed by the Fermanagh & Omagh District Arts Council, Eniiskillen, Northerm Ireland. When Darkness Comes: A Collection of Stories This collection comes out of a residency on the grounds of a former state mental hospital in western Minnesota. While there, I spent many hours at the local historical society combing through news items about the hospital and its residents from the late nineteenth and early twentieth century. Excerpts from those news items have become epigraphs to the works of fiction that comprise this collection. |
