A writer of short stories about writers writing their stories. Read “A College Borough” for a fascinating tale of a writer whose failure to find inspiration for words in the Midwestern plains sculpts his students' talents with words into an architectural monument to New York City, and that which he cannot regain. Masterful.

The rest of these pieces are touch and go.
