The ever-wonderful editor Alison Tyler called me a “clever author” in her e-mail to let me know my story “The Heist” will appear in her anthology Frenzy (formerly titled Flash Fucking), from Cleis Press this autumn.

“The Heist” is a personal favorite of mine so I’m especially chuffed. It was inspired in part by Kate Bush and the lyric “With a kiss/I’d pass the key/And feel your tongue/Teasing and receiving.”
