My goal as a writer, broadly speaking, is to write about how we live in America and how we came to live this way, with all the many ridiculosities, absurdities, vexations, and heartbreaks that our lives entail....
I'm the author of three books: That Demon Life and Professed, novels, and Long Time Ago Good, a story collection. My work has been published in two dozen or so journals, including Callaloo, Iron Horse Literary Review, and Short Story,
and I've won the Dobie-Paisano Fellowship, awarded by the University
of Texas at Austin and the Texas Institute of Letters. I lived in
Austin, Texas, for 25 years, at various times making my living working
as a cab driver, as a shade tree salesman, and as an Internal Revenue Service bureaucrat. I've been a lecturer at Texas A&M University, and have been the National Endowment for the Arts Artist-in-Residence at the federal prison in Bryan, Texas. I'm now Assistant Professor of English at Pittsburg State University, where I teach creative writing and literature
