Book excerpt: "I'm enthralled by the deadpan weird found in so many of Kim Magowan's stories, where the strange doesn't so much intrude upon the real but rather insist it is the real. How Far I've Come is such a smart, moving, funny collection, by a writer who never fails to thrill and surprise me." -Matt Bell, author of Appleseed "Kim Magowan's new collection circumnavigates the tense world of fractured relationships. We're inside and outside, straddling and stomping away from divorces and affairs and threesomes with lapsed Christians. It's such an achievement, all the longing and lust stretched between two covers. I couldn't put it down." --Sherrie Flick, author of Thank Your Lucky Stars "I learn so much about writing when I read Kim Magowan. She's artful yet honest, modest yet brazen. She somehow writes stories that are at once intimate, funny, and tragic, spooling and unspooling the joys, travails, and mishaps of love and friendship and family. Under the spell of her wry wit, her wisdom, I gladly follow her exploration of the general messiness of being human, always turning the page for just one more story. Just one more." --Grant Faulkner, author of All the Comfort Sin Can Provide ""Beautiful and incisive. Every piece is compelling in its own way and I love how the invention reveals itself over the course of the book. Dazzling." --Matthew Faogarty, author of Maybe Mermaids and Robots Are Lonely
