Thank you to Jeffrey Heath and the January House Literary Journal for publishing my creative nonfiction story, “The Bear Outside the Window”.
The story is based on a sudden illness my wife suffered two years ago, and I’m happy to report she is much better now.

If you are in Oakland CA or the Bay Area, you might want to check out the “Eyes on the Prize” reading 5-7 pm tonight at the Oakland Liberation Center, 1499 Fruitvale Ave., Oakland.
The reading will feature SF Writers Grotto authors who were finalists for literary prizes but did not win. All of the readers are talented and entertaining, and I’m looking forward to a good time. For my segment, I will share a few pages of my irreverent sixties road novel, Lucky Ride, which was a finalist for the Maxy Award.
Hope to see you there!
If you are going to Baltimore for AWP next week 3/3-3/7, I would love to say hi and trade literary jokes and rumors. The Unsolicited Press book fair table T625 is sure to be stocked with irreverent books and tempting sales.
Always open for a coffee or a beer depending on the time of day and weather!
I’m thrilled and honored to have my new poem “My Son Won’t Talk to Me” up on Poetry Online: https://poetry.onl/read/terry-t
The posting includes an audio clip I recorded.
Thank you to the Editor, Tarik Dobb, and the staff of Poetry Online.
