A Year or Two in Rome, A Week or Two in Paris

Glad the discerning metropolitans at the The Missing Slate made this their weekend poem. It's a truly international journal led by a talented and culturally diverse team with roots in Pakistan, South Asia and the UK.

Thanks Again, Jacob & JoAnne

As I contemplated applying to grad school again, I realized that the hardest part of the process might be getting letters of recommendation for my creative work. But I would like to thank two people who vouched for me.  Jacob  Silkstone, managing editor at the U.K. and Pakistan based international journal The Missing Slate , vouched for me by way of  the pieces  I'd published there. I also reached out to a professional writing contact, Judge JoAnne Kloppenberg, now  the presiding judge of the  Wisconsin Court of Appeals . I was lucky enough to have Jo Anne represent many of my decisions in the  environmental protection unit of the Department of Justice. She vouched for my quasi-judicial decisions and lawyerly writing. With their help, I was accepted into the  MFA program  in fiction at Augsburg College in Minneapolis.  Thanks to both for your support, and more on Augsburg in a later post.

Story Forthcoming in Rosebud

It's the fifth of my my group of linked stories to be published and especially meaningful to have it published in magazine I've long admired. Many thanks to editor Roderick Clark.
