He was the editor of TriQuarterly magazine for 16 years, and has won fellowships from the Guggenheim Foundation, the NEA, and the Center for Hellenic Studies. He has very strong connections in the Chicago, IL, area.His fiction has sold particularly well in the past. His novel, Sweetbitter, was published and reissued by three different presses, including Penguin, and sold more than 12,000 copies.These new stories fit well into the category of very short fiction, "short shorts," or "flash" fiction, which has seen a strong resurgence in recent years. |
