In spite of being central to a story, they're often hidden behind some of the main characters in western fiction. It's nice to know that authors like Jane Candia Coleman are writing about women from a woman's point of view. Their stories need to be told and read. Ron, thanks very much for initiating me into Coleman's work.Prashant C.

Mine was a midwestern romance, a humble literary contribution compared to her literary achievement. Surprisingly, she jumped at the request and I am still honored! The short story form was my first love. I must find a copy of "Moving On!"

It holds a place of honor on my shelf, with short story collections by Dorothy Johnson, Elmore Leonard, and others. I found "Are You Coming Back, Phin Montana?" especially powerful when I first read it in the mid-90s, and it still resonates with me years later.Troy D.
