Author

Jeffery Brady writes from his cabin on West Creek on the traditional lands of the Lkóot in Dyea, Alaska. He studied creative writing at the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill in the late 1970s before discovering Alaska and branching off toward a thirty-seven-year career running a community newspaper. Now retired, he has returned to his love of poetry and fiction, drawing from south and north. His poetry has recently appeared in Cirque Journal, Tidal Echoes, and on the 49 Writers pandemic broadside. He is codirector of the North Words Writers Symposium and Alderworks Alaska Writers & Artists Retreat and a proud owner of an independent bookstore. This is his first published short story.
