The Opiate Magazine of Paris and NYC published my tale "When the Phone Rang," about a prisoner of war during the times between wars. The story takes on issues of rendition, torture, erroneous incarceration, hate, prejudice, and pain... just a few things that've been on my mind.
"When the Phone Rang" originally appeared in my short story collection Fiercer Monsters published by Nomadic Press of Oakland, CA a few years ago. It is my belief that not enough people have seen the story.
I read it to an amazing audience live for the book launch with music provided by John and Jon from No Lovely Thing. We had a great time. We were outdoors in a huge backyard with a bonfire and fairy lights everywhere. I'd love to do that again! Let's see if we can make that work.
