CathyEatonFiction
Eaton’s first collection
of stories
released May 2012
READ EXCERPT FROM SNAGS AND SPILLS
Featuring "Raggedy Slipper"
2012 Pushcart Prize nomination
Eaton’s stories investigate the lives of ordinary individuals: a mother awaiting the return of her son deployed to Iraq, a jilted wife, a teen addicted to gambling, an alcoholic vet, aging parents, teen rivals lost in the wilderness, a farmwife displaced from her dairy, and a WW II pilot whose plane explodes. In a modern day version of Snow White, the dwarfs can’t stand the princess.
Review of Snags and Spills by Craig Cushing
Review of Snags and Spills by Erika Olsen
“For each spill you take, you can choose to quit,
or you can choose to rise up and tackle the next hurdle.
Your life is full of snags that can unravel. If mended,
they can provide the strength for you to endure.”
--Cathy Eaton
