About Me

My literary credentials consist solely of restraining orders from editors.

I tweet as @frankiesachs

Nothing I post here is published (unless you consider "posted on Fictionaut" published).

I am also organizing an anthology to benefit Japan. We're donating proceeds to the Red Cross. More on that in the New Sun Rising group.

Why do you write?

Most things I do are motivated by spite. This is probably one of them.

Any favorite authors? Books?

Right now I am reading Normal Service Will Resume Shortly. It makes me want to make surrealist babies with Tyson Bley.

Thanks, Frankie, for taking " The Last Chance...Story Contest" exactly in the intended spirit.

Marcus Speh – Nov 20, 2011

yes, (s)he does, because the serious writer can be you, me, anyone...thanks for the great comment on "a href="http://www.fictionaut.com/stories/marcus-speh/the-serious-writer-occupies-wall-street">the serious writer occupies wall street</a>".

Neil Serven – Nov 15, 2011

Frankie, thanks for the love on "Welcome to the Occupation." I suspect Mark was still around for the evacuation last night, but Carly and the others went back to Toledo.

Thanks for reading and commenting on Feminists and Salamanders. It is indeed good to have a inner unicorn even it if is opinionated.

Frankie, thank you for the comment on Migrant Workers.

Mike Lynch – Apr 11, 2011

dug your fish poem. nostalgia! i used to heart inventing characters and developing social media accounts for them -- a man stuck in the branches of an apple tree or a robot that enjoys digging holes and collecting wicker furniture. i befriended a boat and a toaster, and we collaborated on ms paint drawings. good times! ;)

Susan Tepper – Apr 10, 2011

Frankie, yes, the circular in Leaves, you got it, and thanks so much, Frankie

Meg Pokrass – Apr 10, 2011

Robert Vaughan – Apr 04, 2011

Frankie,

I submitted a story for your book of poems and flash/ stories for Japan today. I hope you like it. Of course, I am open to edits and suggestions, too. Thanks so much for this enormous undertaking. Best to you and Lou on the book.

Misti Rainwater-Lites – Apr 02, 2011

Kim Hutchinson – Mar 27, 2011

Thanks for the comment and fave on Humpty Dumpty 2011, Frankie. I appreciate the read.

Lou Freshwater – Mar 26, 2011

Of course I meant there aren't a lot of people who DO like to wade into it. Oh my weary eyes.

Lou Freshwater – Mar 26, 2011

Frankie, glad you liked Heart Jar. It is dark, so I know there are not a lot of people who don't like to wade into it. Thank you.

Lynn Beighley – Mar 25, 2011

Or did I take you too literally?

Lynn Beighley – Mar 25, 2011

Oh heavens, I didn't mean to say anyone was rude! I'll be honest, I find writing "thank you thank you" on 10 people's walls a bit of a nuisance, while at the same time I'm really grateful they took the time to read and comment. Just some people probably do get their noses bent out of shape (I'm not one of them!).

Penny Goring – Mar 25, 2011

thanks for reading & tweetin my stuff babes x

Mike Lynch – Mar 25, 2011

David Ackley – Mar 24, 2011

Frankie, thanks so much for the kind comment and suggestion--quite right--for "Tortillas"

Marcus Speh – Mar 23, 2011

william gass, not a mean or mediocre writer, has confessed to a similar motivation to write, i just read that the other day in the book by betsy lerner for editing writers...i welcome you to fictionaut and i'm looking forward to your work, frankie. i do admire the speed with which you responded to the japan disaster & i'm looking forward to seeing "new sun rising" come to live. this is a special place with space for many talents and views, i think. shake 'em up.

Jeffrey S. Callico – Mar 23, 2011
