I recently spoke with the wonderful Anne Kimzey, Literary Arts Program Manager at the Alabama State Council on the Arts, and the radio interview has been posted. I was super fortunate to receive an ASCA fellowship for 2015, which has been such a boon. A million thanks again to ASCA and to Anne for taking the time to talk with me–and for all that she and ASCA do on behalf of the literary arts statewide.
You can hear me talk about the fellowship, read a little, and ramble on about who knows what else here.
ps I’m still at the Jentel Artist Residency. Working at a fast and furious pace here in my final week. Have written 100 new pages (!!!) so far, trying to get the rest down. The pages are MESSY, but they’re there. The bones of a draft.
For now, here are a few more pictures from Jentel. No way I can describe the view and do it justice.

Studio and story board (with extremely comfy recliner).
Jentel mailbox and entrance.
A querulous-looking-but-actually happy me out on a walk. We have to wear orange vests to be visible on the road. Quite the fashion accessory.
The cows are very curious and skeptical of pedestrians.
Sunset while walking in “The 1,000,” i.e. the 1,000 acres behind the residence.
Moon over The 1,000.
