Richard Lawrence Cohen: Not Your Average Blogger

Richard Cohen is a novelist and author of short stories. For more than a year now, he has also been a blogger. On his site, he writes what's called microfiction, stories that can range from the slightly fantastic to straightforward evocations of domestic life. He's been known to try his hand at parody as well.

Richard sometimes steps from behind the curtain to speak in his own voice about life. I love his understated and beautiful way of writing.

Over the past two days, Richard has presented two beautiful short pieces. See here and here.

Reading Richard's stuff makes me realize that I may be a decent blogger, sometimes, a preacher, and an effective communicator. But Richard is that rarest of bloggers: Richard is a writer!

Make Richard's writing a regular daily treat.
