Good news! My short story Midsummer Disc Dreams, a rousing, action-packed tale about the wonderful sport of Ultimate Frisbee is now available from outdoor literary magazine In the Mist.
I'm sure there are quite a few people out there who have never heard about Ultimate Frisbee before. It's a sport similar to soccer or football, played with a Frisbee instead of a ball. However, the players will tell you that it's much more than a sport. It's a place you can go as an absolute stranger across the U.S. and around the world to meet people who will welcome you with open arms. Most games are pick-up, open to anyone and everyone who wants to play. Beginners are always welcome at the casual pick-up games. There are no referees; rules are upheld by the players themselves, based on the 'spirit of game,' a code of honor that directs players to be honest, friendly, and fair. What better way to stay healthy and be social at the same time?

Emma, I enjoyed reading the story, learning something about a topic I knew nothing about, and ‘feeling’ Callie’s inner joy over her accomplishment. Congratulations on being published. I hope this is one of many.

Thanks for checking out the story! I'm glad that it can be appreciated by non-Ultimate players. Sometimes with our hobbies we get wrapped up in our own little worlds. :)
