On Publishing "Girl U Want," a short fantasy
I have a new short fantasy out in Dappled Things. (In print only, and selling fast.)
I had such fun writing, "Girl U Want," because of the interesting bits that wended their way into the tale: Craigslist, single motherhood, Devo, church, job interviews, and the novel, Watership Down.

What I intend to say is this: I cannot substantially alter the thing. I have finished it, is “off my mind”: the labour has been colossal: and it must stand or fall, practically as it is.

So the America I loved still exists, if not in the White House or the Supreme Court or the Senate or the House of Representatives or the media. The America I love still exists at the front desks of our public libraries.”
