The writers behind this newsletter.
I received my MFA from Bennington College and teach at the University of Maryland. I've twice won the Malcolm C. Braly Fiction Award. In THE COTTAGER, an elderly woman travels back in time to save her son's life: https://tinyurl.com/35zhsd54
I like to tell stories. Whether the story is a technical update at work, an anecdote from my life, or a work of fiction from my imagination, spinning a yarn is my favorite thing to do.
