Time for a Writing Challenge


While working on novels, I love shorter writing challenges. Whether it's poetry, flash fiction, or a short story, I love working within the confines of a particular challenge to hone my writing skills.

The Liars' League writing contest takes place in London, Hong Kong, New York City, and Portland. It's a great contest. Stories are submitted, and the chosen one is performed live onstage.

Liars' League PDX

I chose to submit to Liars' League PDX, which is in Portland, Oregon. The story I'm choosing to submit is entitled "Silk." It's a spooky, sexy, provocative little story about a jazz musician. the tale is set on the west coast during the Prohibition.




It's rewarding to work on shorter pieces. I get the satisfaction of bringing a work to completion.

Keeping my fingers crossed that Silk will be chosen to be performed.

Keep Writing!
