The B-Roll
These pages present a little “Bottle Rocket” back story.
Ann McMan is conducting a series of conversations with each of the authors featured in “Bottle Rocket,” the novella that anchors her story collection, SIDECAR.

In each edition, a member of the CLIT-Con 13 will share her views about life, love, writing, and contract negotiations gone horribly wrong.

This week, I’m visiting the sprawling and nicely appointed Piedmont Dog Park in Atlanta’s Virginia Highlands neighborhood. It’s a balmy, Sunday afternoon in August—but there’s a breeze blowing in from the south (probably thanks to Hurricane Isaac), and the tree canopy in this part of the park is providing lots of welcome shade. The park …
