The Nakedness of Ozone – New Fiction

The Nakedness of Ozone – New Fiction. A New Memoir Story for you, my wonderful readers, because we desperately need stories during these times of Corona. My latest short story, The Nakedness of Ozone, has just been published in the anthology Growing Up, put out by Pure Slush, a fine Australian press. This is my first accepted story with this excellent indie press. The Nakedness of Ozone is the story of a little boy, his father, a swimming pool, and the memory of hot rain on summer pavement. This is a poignant piece of fictionalized memoir that has been kicking around in my noggin for some time. I am thrilled have this story be a part of this great anthology. As always, I am throwing down a huge shout-out to the editors of Pure Slush and to you as well, my superlative readers!
