July 2008 Editor's Note


July 2008

Dear Reader:

Brink's sixth issue features stories from two talented new voices. Kevin Keating's work has been nominated for several awards, including Story South's Million Writers Award and the Pushcart Prize. Amy Shearn teaches writing in Manhattan and recently published a novel called How Far is the Ocean From Here.

We're also proud to present an interview with Nathaniel Rich, author of the new novel The Mayor's Tongue; poems by John Slater, Sokunthary Svay, and David Swartz; and a group of paintings by Laura Bauer.

As always, thanks for reading.

Sincerely,
Charles Gershman
Co-Editor
