Curbside Sounds - Amber Sparks

By Victor David Giron

In Curbside Sounds we feature authors we dig reading their work or telling a story while sitting on a curb or their favorite bench, at a bar in the middle of a lazy afternoon, and sometimes even at a recording studio. For this installment we've got Washington DC based author Amber Sparks reading her short story "To Make Us Whole" included in her short story collection MAY WE SHED THESE HUMAN BODIES we're publishing in September 2012. Pre-order your copy with FREE shipping here.
