Nicholas J. Carter is a New Englander with a few handfuls of short stories and odd flash fiction tales under his belt. He’s been featured in Everyday Weirdness, Boston Literary Magazine, Dog Eat Crow and elsewhere. His mother is a librarian and his father a smartass, such that while he was growing up there was a ready supply of words hanging around the house and someone to show him how to twist them. He currently lives in Massachusetts with his wife. He’s very fond of flash fiction. His flash piece “Wheels of Blue Stilton” took second place in the podcast Escape Pod’s Flash Fiction Contest, and he spent a year as an editor for Flash Me Magazine before that publication went on hiatus. A brief but passionate love affair with the sport of football led him to write for the United Football League for a short time. Artifacts of that era may still be around online, waiting to be uncovered.
