Royal Palm Literary Awards
My two flash fiction (1000 words or less) entries for the 2015 Royal Palm Literary Award made it into the competition’s semi-finals and finals, but came up short of winning at the 2015 Florida Writers Conference in October.
But it was exciting to see my name and picture show up on the big screen at the banquet with the other finalists!

The Shadows in the Alley
Just a quick post about my latest foray into fiction writing…
My local newspaper, the Ocala Star-Banner, ran a “round robin” story contest for Halloween this year. Rick Allen started the story and published the first 500 or so words and challenged readers to finish it in 300 words or less.
I won the contest and had my picture and ending to the story published in the Sunday, October 26 paper.
If you’d like to read the story and Rick’s write-up about me in the Ocala Star-Banner, just click here.

Ocala Star-Banner Ongoing Tale #2
I participated in the latest Ongoing Tale in Emory Schley’s Bits and Pieces column in the Ocala Star-Banner. Click the link to read the entire story in PDF format:
I wrote four of the 100-word episodes, including the first and last 100 words.
Note: I previously provided a link to a digital copy of Emory Schley’s column containing the story on the Ocala Star-Banner’s website, but it seems the column has been removed from the site.
