E193 - Sue Mell, A New Day (a story collection)
Manage episode 454347014 series 3499491
E193 – Author Sue Mell’s story collection, A New Day, touches upon innocence, heartache, love and the trials of relationships. I had so much fun reading an excerpt of the first short story in this collection, Serendipity. Listeners will identify with her characters Colleen, Rachel, Evan and Richard.
A New Day was a finalist for the 2021 St. Lawrence Book Award and was published in September 2024. Her debut novel, Provenance, won the Madville Publishing Blue Moon Novel Award, and was selected as a Great Group Read by the Women’s National Book Association, and as an Indie Fiction Pick by the Community of Literary Magazines and Presses. Her collection of micro essays, Giving Care, won the Chestnut Review Prose Chapbook Prize. Other work has appeared in Narrative Magazine, Hippocampus Magazine, Jellyfish Review, Cleaver Magazine, and elsewhere. She earned her MFA from Warren Wilson, was a BookEnds fellow at SUNY Stony Brook, and lives in Queens, New York, where she cares for her aging mom and a gray tuxedo cat named Poppy.
