    Great story in The Paris Review Ann!

    Ann, i loved your story The Caterer that just came out in Narrative. I just got a story accepted by Tom Jenks of Narrative. I was going to take one of his workshops in San Fransisco but I ended up not being able to make it. Anyway, he said I had a lot of talent (which shocked me stupid on the phone with him) and wanted to publish one of the stories I'd sent him in his Story of the Week. He said he'd edit it and may ask me to make some revisions. Is this normal for an editor to do? Or is he just a really great guy that way. I'm a new fish in the pond. I have no clue.

    Anne you are a wonderful writer. I am envious of your Pen/Malamud distinction as he has been my lifelong writing inspiration. "The Last Mohican" and "Rembrandt's Hat" are two of my favorites.

    Thank you so much for sharing your story with us. As wonderful as your visit to USM when I was a grad student several years ago. I learn much from you.
