Random Acts of Writing

Random Acts of Writing is a rollercoaster ride of reading. You never know what's coming next. The writer has put together an exciting collection of poems, short stories and essays with enough twists and turns that take you from wanting to throw your hands in the air with glee to screaming to get off this crazy ride,but leaning into the next turn or dip with frantic anticipation.

"Dierdre Parker writes with great passion and warmth. While her characters struggle with race, religion, and sexuality, her stories never shy away from the possibility of redemption."
-Johannes Michael Lichtman-
Johannes Lichtman is a teaching assistant in the creative writing department of UNC Wilmington. His writing has appeared or is forthcoming in The Oxford American, American Short Fiction, Barrelhouse, REAL, Word Riot and elsewhere.
