My guests this week remember and celebrate the life and work of the late short story writer, teacher, friend and mentor Dwight Yates (1945-2023). I am joined by Susan Straight (Mecca), Victoria Patterson (The Secret Habit of Sorrow), and Gary Amdahl (The Daredevils), all accomplished and acclaimed writers for the first of a two-part show. Dwight Yates was the author of dozens of short stories, many of them available in two award-winning collections, Bring Everybody and Haywire Hearts and Slide Trombones. This podcast is just not big enough to have hosted all the friends and students of Dwight, for which I apologize. By all means, write or host other tributes, and purchase, gift, and recommend his books and stories. His final gorgeous fiction appears in the newest (spring 2024) issue of the Santa Monica Review.
I am so grateful for the participation of these fellow Friends of Dwight Yates, and for the opportunity to pay tribute to this excellent writer and exemplary human being. Next week, Part II, featuring more discussion and short readings (!) from his work.
