The Nan Stories

Hello there, Goodreads friends,

I've been working on a new novel--a ghost story with other supernatural elements, set in coastal Maine--which I'm hoping to get finished with soon. But in the meantime, I'd like to share with you another project I'm working on: a collection of linked short stories I'm calling "The Nan Stories," as each revolves around a young woman named Nan who moves from rural Vermont to NYC to start college in the wake of her older brother's death. I've written 8 Nan stories so far, three of which have been published (another forthcoming this fall in Narrative magazine). If you'd like to check them out, I've posted the published stories on my Fictionaut profile:

"Nan" is the first story in the series, originally published in Post Road. "Country House" is the third story, originally published in ReDivider.
"Forgiveness," the fifth story was originally published in Guernica, and nominated for a Pushcart Prize last year.
The second story, "Liars," will be out this fall in Narrative.

Thanks for reading and I look forward to your thoughts.
Sincerely,
Nathaniel Bellows

Nan: A Novel-in-Stories - Print Version

The print version of Nan, my novel-in-stories, is on its way--I just sent off the approved proofs to the printer yesterday, so books will be ready by November. This will be a limited run of first edition hardcovers with my illustrated cover and endpapers. It's $20, free shipping, and if you pre-order now, I will sign and inscribe it to you or whomever you like (if you want).

Here's the link: http://www.harmonblunt.com/HBP_books_...
