Another blurb

In my continuing effort to concisely weave together the words to aptly describe Folding Elephants:
Folded into this tale is how to make an elephant from a dollar bill. The beginning folds from a mighty valley, into a man’s estrangement from his fold, and then gradually forms a memory of hope.

First submission!


Decided to try The Masters Review first because of their focus on emerging writers. I can always try Tor.com next. Now I can return to my novel work!

Hi ho hi ho, it's back to work I go. I wanna get published, and not write rubbish. Hi ho, hi ho hi ho!

Refining Folding Elephants Draft 8...

Limited release

Folding Elephants is currently circulating among my trusted (and most brutally honest) friends for review. If I survive their potentially scathing feedback, the plan is to submit this short story to Tor.com for publication as an original fiction. If published, I earn more dollar bills to fold!

Until publication, I offer this synopsis:
The story of the blind men and an elephant originated in the Indian subcontinent thousands of years ago. For a widespread parable about truth, we have long been blind to ask: Why so many blind people in one village? A reluctant king, a religion which isn’t, a parable about an elephant, and an origami legend fold together in hopes of one man’s wish for redemption.
