Successes Around the State: Spring 2022

In our new quarterly series “Successes Around the State,” we seek to highlight the recently published short work of our members. Here is where we celebrate new stories, poems, and essays. Congratulations to our members for the successes listed below. We celebrate with you!

Chris Jones had a fiction article, "Clarity at the High End," appear in the January 2022 issue of The Bridge Bulletin, which is the magazine of the American Contract Bridge League. This is a rollicking tale of a couple of guys trying to find shortcuts to mastering the game of bridge.

Bradley Sides had an apocalyptic, gameplay short story titled “To Take, To Leave” published in the winter issue of Psychopomp.

T.K. Thorne’s latest nonfiction book—Behind the Magic Curtain: Secrets, Spies, and Unsung White Allies of Birmingham’s Civil Rights Days, the last novel in her trilogy about a Birmingham police witch—has hit the shelves. The long awaited House of Iron completes the trilogy that began with House of Rose and House of Stone. Also, her short story “The Old Lady” appears in two anthologies, Work in Progress and To Serve, Protect, and Write.
