David Jaicks: Writer and Poet

In honor of National Poetry Month, on this week's WRITESPA we celebrate with one of my favorite writers: David Jaicks.

Dave Jaicks is an award-winning writer who has published in journals such as Open City, Fence, Hummingbird, The Haight Ashbury Literary Journal, and Passages North.

His most recent book, "Horses In The Fog," is a collection of five short stories:

One is about a carpenter who gets paid from his last job in coins and meets a well dressed woman on the train.

Then there’s the rich man who aspires to be poor and what he does with his money to get there.

A group of dogs in the city find themselves all wearing sunglasses.

A young man on the brink of fatherhood thinks about camping on the moon.

I love them all!

Dave Jaicks is also the author of Dog Park, Driving Home, and River Rock.
