Publisher’s Weekly reports that the Rocky Mountain News is commissioning short stories from some of the state’s best authors to celebrate Denver’s sesquicentennial. Among them is Pam Houston, one of my personal favorites. The stories celebrating Colorado will be published weekly on Tuesdays from now through the end of the year.
How about it, Alaska? Sure, we’ve got some good collections out there, but wouldn’t it be great to read stories penned by some of our best in celebration of our 50th birthday? ADN? FDNM? Anchorage Press? Hope to hear that one of you is latching onto the concept and making it ours.
