He teaches fiction writing at Central Connecticut State University."Tom Hazuka has long been a major editor of flash fiction anthologies, and for decades I've enjoyed reading his work in magazines. Now at last we have a full volume of his own flash stories and they're brilliant. Raw, acerbic, soulful, funny. What a treasure." -Robert Shapard, author of Bare Ana and Other Stories; co-editor of Norton sudden and flash fiction anthologies"The characters in Tom Hazuka's collection Visible Human are all wonderfully human as they confess and complain, hope and dream. They allow their transgressions to play out in full view, with humor and yearning, in arresting stories that ask for and earn the reader's admiration and absolution." -Pamela Painter, Author of Fabrications: New and Selected Stories "With Visible Human, Tom Hazuka casts a wise and incisive glow over the commonplace as only the best storytellers can. He gives us narratives, with a diamond cutter's precision, that are as universal as they are personally told. Here is sure word of those fissures and hard-won triumphs that mark our days."-Robert Scotellaro, author of What Are the Chances? and Quick Adjustments"I've been a fan (I've published four of his stories in my lit journal 100 Word Story) of Tom Hazuka's writing for years, and I'm delighted by his new collection. These inventive stories run the gamut of emotions from deadly serious to slapstick, told in singularly Hazukian language that sparkles, surprises-and never fails to entertain."-Grant Faulkner, co-founder, 100 Word Story
