It's always pleasing to hear that one of our authors is having success. Amarillo Bay published the story Exhuming Captain Midnight by Guinotte Wise in Volume 15 Number 4 (November 2013). His second book, "Ruined Days," a thriller/crime novel, was recently published by Black Opal Books. You can read a short excerpt on his blog. You can get more information about Guinotte on Amazon.
The new issue of Amarillo Bay is interesting for a couple of reasons. First, it is the first issue that has the same author in two different areas. Sighs (in Fiction) and A Fire: Galveston, 1965 (in Poetry) are both by Ken Wheatcroft-Pardue. We had previously published his poem No Casseroles in Volume 14 Number 2 (May 2012).
The second reason this issue is interesting is that the fiction is all related to marriages and the relationships they involve. None of the marriages are going well, of course. Which makes me think of the quote "Happy families are all alike; every unhappy family is unhappy in its own way," which I understand is the opening line in Leo Tolstoy's book "Anna Karenina." Even though the marriages are not so happy, I think you will enjoy reading the stores, as well as the intriguing The True Story of Her Play in Creative Nonfiction and the six works in Poetry.
I am pleased to announce that we have a new copy editor, Nikki Carr. Because of her careful work, there are at least six typos or other errors that you won't run into when you read this issue of Amarillo Bay. Her work is much appreciated!
So head on over to the Contents and start enjoying!
Be sure to check out previous issues at the bottom of the Contents page. There are over 675 works available from the quarterly issues we have published since 1999.
Thank you for your continuing interest in Amarillo Bay!
