And now it’s time for the annual publication round-up. This year, I did not do much creative writing. With the loss of my father and uncle, I just couldn’t seem to produce creative fiction. I did add one publication to the list, Creative Gems 3, which I have added to the bottom of this list. We are going to continue to add to this list each year, and see how long I can make it! Here’s looking forward to a new year and a new chance to get back into the groove of writing!
“Down the Country Road” Short Story- https://penmenreview.com/down-the-country-road/ This is my first published piece. Here we have a short story written from a young adult perspective.

Until Next Time,
