My debut short story collection, While I Have You, is coming from Littoral Books in April 2027. Check my News page for updates and events.
The collection consists of twelve stories, including Downstream Benefits, in which a husband endures a meaningless corporate job while his wife comes undone. Nominated for Best of the Net and the Pushcart Prize, the story won the 2025 Maine Literary Award for Short Fiction and was listed as a distinguished story in that year's Best American Short Stories.
Other stories include Splice, in which a squabble with an author reveals a book editor’s hidden grief; Mr. Palm Beach, in which an undead father wears out his welcome; and Zephyr, in which a customer service complaint takes a dark turn.
A littoral zone in Wells, Maine.
