The New Quarterly’s summer issue, due out in August 2010, will include a new story of mine titled “One Two Three Two One.” Or else it’s ” i  2  3  2  1.” As you like it. . . .

The story’s about a woman who finds her true love late, after mistaking a couple of others for entities she’s interested in.

Put more simply, Ellen’s not cut out to be a mother. Who does that cutting? I don’t know.

I’m glad to be published in The New Quarterly. If you aren’t familiar with it, take a look at their spring 2010 issue, focussed on an amazing collection of Lists with Diane Schoemperlen as guest ed.
