Dinty W. Moore was born and raised in Erie, Pennsylvania, and spent his formative years fishing for bluegill, riding a bike with a banana seat, and dodging the Sisters of St. Joseph. He earned a BA in writing from the University of Pittsburgh, worked briefly as a journalist, and also served short stints as a documentary filmmaker, modern dance performer, zookeeper, and Greenwich Village waiter. It was only after failing at each of these professions that he went on to earn an MFA in fiction writing from Louisiana State University.

A National Endowment for the Arts fellowship recipient, Moore has guest taught creative nonfiction seminars across the United States as well as in Ireland, Scotland, Spain, Switzerland, Canada, and Mexico. In addition to editing the journal, Brevity, he is on the editorial board of Creative Nonfiction magazine.

5.0 out of 5 stars Superb Collection of Flash Fiction
By Scott A. Minar on August 17, 2019
Moore's collection of flash fiction is both a fine textbook and a good read outside of a college classroom. The stories are sharp, artful, and varied. I strongly recommend this book and use it regularly in my creative writing classes. The previous reviewer's reference to spelling is debatable, at the least (living language), and not at all reflective of the book's content and/or value as a collection of short fiction. Many of the pieces in this book are startlingly good, and all have something fine to offer the reader.
