A New Short Story from Literally Stories

To Keep the Wound Green – New Literary Fiction

To Keep the Wound Green – New Literary Fiction for you, my readers, because you are wonderful! My latest story, To Keep the Wound Green, just went live at the great online ‘Zine Literally Stories. To Keep the Wound Green is set in a French village amidst the horrors of World War One. This tale begins and ends with funerals that feature very odd-sized coffins. A young woman dead and there is enough blame to fill the trenches. And behind everything there is a hard patriarch who demands a bloody justice. I want to throw out a huge shout-out and thanks to the wondrous editors at Literally Stories for their continued support of my fiction work.
