So you remember me posting this video on Wednesday? Well, my story “Multiplicity” is featured today at Every Day Fiction. It’s a quirky little tale that used to have a title similar to this blog post but which was improved upon greatly based on a suggestion made by the one and only Roxane Gay. Next [...]
I didn’t get a chance to post this because of the Hint Fiction announcement (which, if you haven’t heard, I’m hosting another contest), but yesterday my story “The Cigarette Tree” was published at Staccato Fiction. It’s probably one of my quieter stories. Plus, it’s based on true events (well, as a boy I did go [...]

David Erlewine is a madman. I say that with the utmost respect. The man works a full-time government job, has a family, and is active all over the Internet at different writing sites.
