New Short Fiction – Fermat and the Liar

Fermat and the Liar – New Short Fiction from the fine folks at Glassworks Magazine. Glassworks is a publication of Rowan University’s Master of Art in Writing program. I am thrilled to be a part of this fine literary journal.

The Story…

The main character is a compulsive liar, a man with many names and many identities. He weaves a web of deceit to escape his past. First and foremost, he cannot be seen for who he really is. As a result, the liar must be a chameleon, changing his colors to match the situation. But the past is a patient hunter. Despite all his clever deceits, his past proves to be inescapable.

And a Note to the World…

Friends and Neighbors, we’re all playing together in one sandbox, and our sandbox ain’t that big. Fellow Citizens of the World, this life can be hard even without greedy bullies messing it up for everyone else. We don’t need war-mongering sonsofbitches making it harder than it has to be. So I’m here to tell you, Vladimir Putin can kiss my story-scribbling ass.

Peace in Ukraine!
