LONG STORY SHORT Writing Site Honors Local awarding winning Author’s story.

Orange,CA--The board of editors at Long Story Short have chosen D. R. Prescott’s story, "To Pay A Debt", for publication in the August issue of LSS.

To Pay A Debt was conceived from watching people roaming the streets of our country searching for a morsel of food, a little money and, perhaps, a little attention. Some are opportunists while a few may be lost in a quagmire of self-doubt, guilt or chemically-induced illusion. This could be one of latter’s stories.

Edited by Denise Cassino, Linda Barnett-Johnson, and Marie Delgado Travis, Long Story Short features fine writing from fiction and poetry to essays and, unlike many journals, also offers critiques from their submission committee. Their goal is to promote and advance the work of writers worldwide.

The URL to the story is www.Alongstoryshort.net/ToPayaDebt.html - available August 7, 2008.

D. R. Prescott is the author of a science fiction novel, a nonfiction book about extinction and survival, a book of essays, numerous short stories, a full-length-three-act play, planetarium show/display scripts, two family histories, and technical articles as well as having edited several newsletters. He writes and explores life in Orange, California.

Other awards and published work include Writer’s Journal “Write to Win! Contest” awards/publication, The Orange County Register Dreamscape Contest publication, placing in Writer’s Digest competitions and awards on Writing.com among others.
