A Shorty by Cynn Chadwick There's something about truckstops in the middle of the night that evoke the most urban of myths. This short story by novelist Cynn Chadwick may just keep your eye on the guy in the next booth next time you visit one.
Cynn Chadwick was born and raised in New Jersey but has lived in the South for over twenty years. Earning both an MA in literature and an MFA in fiction at Goddard College in Vermont, Chadwick is currently a lecturer in the Creative Writing Program at the University of North Carolina at Asheville. Prior to earning her degrees, she worked for one of the first women in the United States to become a master carpenter, an experience that continues to inform her writing.
