S6 E5: Elizabeth Gauffreau on the Art of Writing Short Stories
"I should have gone to see Mother sooner, I suppose, but her letters had been arriving with the same regularity as always, so I had no inkling that anything might be wrong. Truly, Mother’s letters were cheerful as ever. She writes such lovely descriptions of the winter birds at the feeder outside the solarium." Elizabeth Gauffreau, A Morbid CravingWelcome to Tea. Toast. & Trivia.
Thank you for listening in!
I am your host Rebecca Budd, and I look forward to sharing this moment with you.
I am delighted and thrilled that my dear friend, writer and poet, Elizabeth Gauffreau, has come back to share her insights on the art of writing a short story. We are once again bridging the 3897 kilometers, as the crow flies, between New Hampshire and Vancouver.
Liz is a gifted writer who specializes in fiction and poetry that delves into the themes of family and place. With a bachelor’s degree in English/Writing from Old Dominion University and a master’s degree in English/Fiction Writing from the University of New Hampshire, she has honed her skills and crafted a compelling body of work.
I have read Liz’s short story “A Morbid Craving”, published by Lamplit Underground, several times over the past weeks. Her ability to capture four points of view within a very complex narrative was riveting.
It is time to put the kettle on and add to this exciting conversation.
Thank you for joining Liz and me on Tea Toast & Trivia. And a very special thank you Liz for sharing your insights and reading. You continue to inspire me.
Listeners, you can meet up with Liz on her website lizgauffreau.com, Substack, Amazon, and Goodreads You are only an internet click away from a place where stories dwell.
Until next time we meet, safe travel wherever your adventures lead you.
