Katherine Oxnard Ellis writes: “Greetings from Savannah, Georgia! My first book, a collection of short stories entitled The Leg in Question, was published on May 19, 2026, by the women-owned independent publisher Unsolicited Press. I’m proud that two stories in this collection have won literary awards: First Prize in the 2024 Tennessee Williams & New Orleans Literary Festival Fiction Contest and Second Prize in December 2021 Curt Johnson Prose Awards. Several stories were finalists for other prizes, and many have appeared in literary magazines such as Story, MOM Egg Review, and Tahoma Literary Review. In addition to my bachelor’s from Brown, I hold an MFA in fiction writing from New York University. After a peripatetic life, I now live and write in historic Savannah, home of Flannery O’Connor, Johnny Mercer, and many ancestors on both sides of my family.”
