John Fulton reads from The Flounder and Other Stories (Blackwater Press 2023).
We talk about writing about place, the role of first sentences and first paragraphs in short stories, and listening to the language to find a shape for revision.
We also talk about drawing from your own life to create fictional characters and settings–and how some material may take years before it finds its time and way into the stories.
