Vote for "Blameless"

This past week, my short story "Blameless" became my first ever published short story when Bartleby Snopes ran it at their web site. Bartleby Snopes runs eight stories a month, and at the end of each month you can vote for your favorite.

I've gotten into the spirit of this, and as of right now I'm second in voting. Today is the second to last day to vote. If you haven't already, could you take a few seconds and go vote for "Blameless" at this link? It very easy, and it means I'll be in Bartleby Snopes's year-end pdf, where they compile all the stories that win.

But the real winner is you if you decide to take a few minutes and read "Blameless" and the other October stories.

And don't forget to vote.

Short Story "Blameless" Published At Bartleby Snopes

In 1992 I submitted a short story to five literary magazines. It was called "But God is a Deaf Old Fellow," and it was about the owner of a farm implement plant trying to bribe a minister into forgiving his sins. The story was never published.

This past week (20 years later!) saw my first ever short story published by a literary magazine. The story is called "Blameless," and it's about what happens when your drummer's girlfriend takes a shining to you. You can read the story online right now at Bartleby Snopes.
