Spent this morning visiting the wonderful MFA students at Albertus Magnus College. I had so much fun talking with them and answering so many great questions.

I love talking with students — if you direct an MFA program and would like me to visit your class don’t hesitate to reach out.

Out today!! “Come Again No More is simply the best work of Southern literature I’ve ever read, a story so lyrical and lovingly drawn – and spit-take funny – that the ghost of William Faulkner might just throw rocks at his best work. I read the book in a day, and I never do that.”
