I write essays, stories, and poems.
As Oronte Churm, I write the column "Dispatches from Adjunct Faculty at a Large State University" for McSweeney's Internet Tendency, and the incredibly popular superblog "The Education of Oronte Churm" at Inside Higher Ed.
Here are some stories and a poem I've written under my real name, John Griswold:
"Transcript of a World War I Veteran’s Narrative,
Nickelton, Kentucky" at Natural Bridge
"Frozen" at Juked
"A Few Years After the War" at MONKEYBICYCLE
"I Didn't Know" at War, Literature & the Arts (PDF File)
"Goodbye, Young Man" at Perigee
My novel, A Democracy of Ghosts, is forthcoming from Wordcraft of Oregon.
