Across the Deserts of My Ghosts - Mecklenburg - Bog

Mecklenburg's best stories of the year. In 2019, Blue Forge Press selected nine authors and sent them monthly writing prompts for one year. They were radically diverse people in terms of experience, style, ideology, class, politics, race, sexuality, and religion, but they all gave a year of their creative lives to craft their best work.
From Hokkaido to Seattle, with stops around this world and others, Mecklenburg explores the intricacy of desire, regret, innocence lost and experience mired beneath the weight of absurdity. Through fictional memoir, essay, and third-person narratives, Mecklenburg's alter-ego and muse, Ada Ludenow, explores the effects of creation on all of us.
Blue Forge Press used a light editorial hand to allow the writer's voice to be heard in its original state: Undiluted, unaltered, and raw. Across the Deserts of My Ghosts collects all twelve stories written by David Mecklenburg plus an extensive interview and a thirteenth bonus story written in 2020.
