* '''2015-09-08''': Kristin FitzPatrick’s debut book, ''[https://wvupressonline.com/node/574 My Pulse is an Earthquake]'', is a collection of short stories available September 1 from West Virginia University Press and for pre-order.

Here we see survivor’s guilt in its lesser-known forms, as it follows characters to work, to bed, and into their most haunting dreams.
