April 2008


Ann Tinkham is a writer based in Boulder, Colorado. She is an anti-social butterfly, pop-culturalist, virtual philosopher, ecstatic dancer, political and java junkie. When she’s not tinkering with words, she’s seeking adventures. Ann has talked her way out of an abduction and talked her way into the halls of the United Nations. She hitchhiked up a mountain in Switzerland and worked her way down the corporate ladder. Ann has flown on a trapeze and traded on the black market in Russia. She cycles up steep canyons, hikes to glacial lakes and mountain peaks, and blazes her own ski trails. As soon as she amasses a fortune, she plans to buy an island and hopes she won’t be voted off her own island.

Her fiction and essays have appeared in All Thing

Lunatics! Nazis! Fascists!

Some of us spend our days hating the other side, exclaiming, “Lunatics! Nazis! Fascists!” We’re certain that our position is the right one, if only the other side could see. If only we could get them to see our clear-eyed position on things. We continue to hate them for not seeing what we see, not agreeing with our stance. And we bolster our self-esteem by knowing without a doubt that we’re right.

The Correspondent by Virginia      Evans
"I love a quiet, introspective read and The Correspondent was pure perfection!

Epistolary novels are quite tricky however Virginia Evans masterfully pulls it off. Centered around Sybil who on the surface is a well mannered, sharp tongued septuagenaria" Read more of this review »

The Correspondent by Virginia      Evans
"I don’t say this lightly: this book is perfect. A staggering achievement of voice and character, of layered empathy and honest appraisal about all the ways we fail and recover as humans. Just so so good. I read it in a day, but will think about it fo" Read more of this review »

Gusto Dave Ann,

Thanks for approving us as friends.

I’m Gusto Dave Jackson, publicist for Rocky Mountain Fiction Writers and I wouldn’t be worth my salt if I didn’t tout our blog and organization. Chiseled in Rock http://chiseledinrock.blogspot.com features side-splitting satire and some flash fiction for intellectual readers.

Today on the Rock: pick up a laugh from the hilarious E.C. STACY, writer of risqué romances and basher of grammar and the overworked comma.

RMFW has several bestselling authors such as NYT Bestseller JEANNE STEIN and J.A. KAZIMER. You have an open invitation to the Rock for contests, entertainment, and an insight to the world of writing! Let’s follow each others’ blogs!
