Live at the Rappahannock Review

A New Story: Tati and Darkness

A quick drum roll, please, for A New Story: Tati and Darkness. My latest published story appears courtesy of the good folks at Rappahannock Review. Tati and Darkness tells the tale of a brave girl and her two younger siblings sheltering in a cave while war sweeps through the valley below. The genre is a blend of magical realism and literary fiction.
