The author of the book Looks How Little Scott Blackwood is published by Little Brown and Company Fourth Estate/HarperCollins in the United Kingdom and adapted by Ponte Alle Grazie in Italy. His last book, We Agreed to Meet Just Here, earned the AWP Prize for the Novel and the 2011 Whiting Writers' Award. A nominee for the Pen Center USA Award in fiction and the Texas Institute of Letters Award for outstanding work of fiction. The New York Times praised his debut book, In the Shadow of Our Home, for its "intense agile narrative and brilliantly honed presentation." His works have appeared in American Short Story. The New York Times, Printer's Row Journal, The Boston Review, The Gettysburg Review, and the Southwest Review have all been anthologized in Janet Burroway's Imaginative Writing. The Rise and Fall of Paramount Records, one of his two narratively verifiable novels, tells the intriguing tale of a white-possessed "Race record" label that began in a Wisconsin manufacturing factory and forever altered American-renowned music.
