>BASS news

>Dan Wickett at EWN broke the news today that “Wait” by Roy Kesey, first published in The Kenyon Review and soon to appear in Roy’s collection to be published by Wickett’s Dzanc Books, has been seleced by Stephen King for Best American Short Stories 2007. I’m thrilled for Roy and can’t wait to have both the collection and BASS in my hands. Way to go Roy!
