Travel onto the ice and experience the wonder of a lonely night sky and the father-son bond that makes adults do crazy things. After the reading, we talk with Chad Broughman about the spiritual nature of this story, his path to writing, and his call to all writers about their work.

Ice by Chad Broughman

In our second episode of Voices from the Sky, we welcome Chad Broughman to talk about his fantastic story, "From Under a Porch," which was originally published in Issue 7 (Spring 2019) of Sky Island Journal. He takes us inside the distinct moment when he decided to become a writer of fiction, opens doors to peer into his writing process, and offers unique insights into this flash fiction story about mercy, patience, and much more.  Chad V. Broughman was the recipient of the Rusty Scythe Prize Book award in 2016 and in 2017 was awarded the Adobe Cottage Writers Retreat honor in New Mexico. As well, Chad was awarded a chapbook contract for his collection of short stories, “the forsaken,” which was published by Etchings Press. His fiction can be found in journals nationwide––such as Carrier Pigeon, East Coast Literary Review, River Poets Journal, Burningword, Pulp Fiction, and From Whispers to Roars––and he is currently anthologized in the Write Michigan Short Story Anthology and On Loss, an anthology. He is a Best of the Net and Pushcart Prize nominee, holds an MFA from Spalding University and served as co-editor for the poetry/fiction blog, Café Aphra, based out of the United Kingdom. Chad teaches English and Creative Writing at the secondary and post-secondary levels but, most importantly, is a husband and the proud father of two feisty young sons. You can read more of Chad's work here: http://www.chadvbroughman.comTune in for future episodes of Voices from the Sky this season!  You can also enjoy more great works of poetry, flash fiction, and creative nonfiction, including Chad Broughman's most recent flash fiction offering, "Teeth," in Issue 14 (Fall 2020), on Saturday, October 17, at Sky Island Journal.
