The Places I Tried to Sit

December 11, 2017 By Maureen Langloss

I have a new micro fiction up at one of my favorite literary magazines, New Delta Review. “The Places I Tried to Sit” was born in a mesmerizing and inspiring workshop I took on repetition in writing, led by Mitchell S.

His book impacted me like no other this year, and I’m looking forward to his new book, Survival Math, which is due out August, 2018.
