Destiny

My fourth story for Ellery Queen's Mystery Magazine has been published in the November/December 2025 issue. Destiny is a tiny tale -- at 600 words it is the shortest story I've ever published -- but at whatever length I am always delighted to appear in EQMM. If a flash fiction tale about nominative determinism is your thing, then I've got you covered!

This blog is published to mark the official on-sale date for my issue, but please be patient. Distribution of the magazine has been erratic since the recent sale of EQMM and its sister magazines. Print copies will show up in due time ... when I hope you will enjoy my story. Thanks for reading!
