Short Bio

Thank you for considering my short story. ‘’Modern American Exorcism” is 4,979 words long. This is a previously unpublished simultaneous submission, and I will withdraw from anywhere else that I have submitted it if it is accepted by The Rumpus. My writing is predominantly speculative fiction, although I typically describe it best as literary sci-fi lite, and it's my hope that I will find a happy home for this story as I think Myeong and Jae-sung deserve it.
