Small Odysseys

A new thing! I’ve loved Selected Shorts for so long—-actors reading short stories!—-and I was so thrilled when they picked Customer Service at the Karaoke Don Quixote for their show, and then years later when they commissioned Best Worst American, which ended up being the title story for my book.

For their 35th anniversary they asked 35 writers to come up with stories. I’m so excited to participate. Hannah Tinti edited, Neil Gaiman wrote the foreword, and Algonquin books will be publishing it on 3 March 2022. It’s one of my favorite things I’ve written. Check it out! Pre-order, please!
