Pilgrimage

I hate to admit how rarely I read a literary journal cover to cover. Pilgrimage, out of Southern Colorado, is the exception. The stories are always gripping, the writing graceful, and the perspective earnest without ever turning, you know, smarmy.

Last month I was surprised, and honored, to learn that long-time editor Peter Anderson chose one of my stories – “La Linea” – to include in the terrific anthology Telling it Real: The Best of Pilgrimage Magazine 2003-2008. When my token copy arrived in the mail, I was even more honored. There’s some great stuff in this book. If you don’t want to take my word for it, check out what the folks at Terrain.org have to say:

And if you’re a writer type, consider submitting to Pilgrimage. It’s a top-notch venue:
