L.F. Graubard writes noir‑inflected fiction about memory, institutions, and the quieter forms of American strangeness. His work appears in Vol. 1 Brooklyn, The Berlin Literary Review, ExPat Press, Blood + Honey, and 50‑Word Stories, and is forthcoming in the Bath Flash Fiction Award Anthology. A former jazz musician and longtime tech consultant, he draws on the surreal textures of New England towns and Brooklyn, where memory slips easily into myth. He is at work on the novel, The Narco Farm.
