Channelling my feelings about capitalism and natural resources I wove provocative tale for this excellent anthology called EYE OF THE HURRICANE. My story went on to win a "3rd Honorable Mention" in Short Fiction from the League of Utah Writers which is better than a dead planet, don't you think?
I was also honorored to be asked to write a President's Note as a forward to this maiden antholgy, celebrating the nature of art and community.
