If you come to my physical office at EO 5, please do not knock on the door. Instead, use the visual doorbell which will alert me via flashing lights. My hearing loss is severe enough that I may not hear a knock, but my sight remains sharp enough that I will not miss the visual cue.

Profile

Jeremy Broyles is an Arizona native originally from the Cottonwood-Jerome-Sedona high desert, but he was adopted by Nebraska. He earned his B.A. from Doane College, now University, in 2001, his M.A. from Northern Arizona University in 2008, and his MFA in fiction from Wichita State University in 2011. His stories have appeared in The MacGuffin, Santa Clara Review, Rock and a Hard Place Magazine, Pembroke Magazine, Red Rock Review, BULL, Blue Earth Review, and Reckon Review amongst many others. His novel, Flat Water, was published in 2023 by Main Street Rag Press. His short story collection, Gutshots and Second Thoughts, is forthcoming from Cornerstone Press in February of 2027. Jeremy is a fully plant-based vegan and is becoming more insufferable about it by the day. He is a member of the Deaf/Hard of Hearing community after having lost his hearing later in life due to medically unknown reasons. And though his use of ASL is admittedly mediocre, he has all the cuss words down pat.
