First Fiction
“It took me ten years to write the stories in my first book, and why shouldn’t it have? After all, it took me ten years to become a good lawyer, which is what I was before I began writing, at forty, and although I wished that my apprenticeship as a writer would go faster and more easily than my last gig had, I suspected that it probably wouldn’t and so dug in for the long haul.”
Kathryn Ma on winning the Iowa Short Fiction Award.
