Story in The Threepenny Review

Posted on by Lana Spendl

My short story appears in the new issue of The Threepenny Review—turns out Martin Scorsese and I both have pieces in this one!

The piece, “Writeup for the Staffing Firm Newsletter,” started in a dream. I woke up in the middle of the night and recorded the opening lines into my phone, then wrote the entire first draft the next day, all into my Notes app. Each moment tumbled out on its own.

So grateful to Editor Wendy Lesser for her care. And delighted this piece found such a wonderful home. Emoji
