Coronado (2006), a collection of five stories included Until Gwen, which was selected for The Best American Short Stories 2005, The Best American Mystery Short Stories 2005, and New Stories from the South 2005. I always snap up the year's Best American Short Stories eagerly. One of the books waiting for me is the Best American Short Stories 2010. Edited by the award-winning, best-selling author Richard Russo, this year's collection boasts a satisfying “chorus of twenty stories that are by turns playful, ironic, somber, and meditative” (Wall Street Journal). His first short story collection, The Surf Guru, will be released in 2010, also by Riverhead.
