While I prefer to tell other people’s stories, every once in a while I’ll write some of my own.

I performed my short story “Three Days of Pee, Love and Music” at the 2012 Woodstock Writers Festival (now Woodstock Bookfest) Rock ‘n’ Roll Story Slam. I was one of three runners-up, and all the winning stories were published in a chapbook sold in a limited run online and at the Golden Notebook in Woodstock, NY.

I performed a short story in the 2019 Woodstock Bookfest Story Slam at the Woodstock Jewish Congregation. Each story had to be 3 minutes or less and contain the line “It’s About Time.”
