Luna of Pigwell Unearths Quantrill’s Bones, brand new Literary fiction from The Opiate. My latest published short story is Luna of Pigwell Unearths Quantrill’s Bones. This long-format story appears in The Opiate: Summer 2021, Vol. 26. A young woman trapped in a small Missouri town finds her narrow world broken apart by her unlikely friendship with an ex-convict, a man bound to an old farm and a dark family history. The collision of past and present propel the characters forward.
