The Fall 2013 issue of COMMONTHOUGHT, a celebration of creative endeavors of Lesley University, features new short stories by E. Christopher Clark, Brendan Flaherty, and Abbie Levesque; new poetry from Lisa DeSiro, Jess Rizkallah, and Harrison Ford; and art by Dylan Griffin, Alyssa Marshall, and Lyndsey McElreath.
E. Christopher Clark is the author of the Stains of Time series, a family saga with elements of time travel and magical realism. His other books include the short story collections Out of the Woods and Under the World, the novella The Seven Wives of Silver, and a collection of poems cheekily titled Bad Poetry Night. His short stories have been published in Live Free or Ride: Tales of the Concord Coach, River Muse: Tales of Lowell & the Merrimack Valley, and the University of Hawaii’s Vice-Versa. A graduate of Lesley University’s MFA in Creative Writing program, he lives in Massachusetts with his wife and daughters.
