Shestories

Susan Dorsey Boland is published in numerous newspapers, magazines, and journals. Shestories is a collection of her published work which includes essays and stories on a range of subjects. By clicking on one of the categories, you can focus on an area of her writing which is of special interest to you.

Shestories, written over the last fifteen years, are sequenced through one calendar year, with each story linked to the date or time of year to which the story is connected in one way or another. Shestories grows as Susan continues to write and add new material to her collection on a month-to-month basis. Susan is also on the web at Banba, a photoblog featuring her photography.

Susan is an Associate Professor at Tidewater Community College where she teaches English as a Second Language.  Susan holds an MA in Linguistics from George Mason University and an MFA from Old Dominion University.

Susan is deeply indebted to her many readers for their support  with Shestories.  In the first two years since she launched the site, over 6000 readers have logged in. Your encouragement has been inspiring and Susan hopes you will continue to enjoy reading Shestories.
