Thanks to the generosity of Lisa Brown and Daniel Handler, Friends opened its administrative office to five talented San Francisco writers, establishing a residency to provide writers with free and accessible space, and connecting them with five library branches to share their talents with the community.

Chaney is a part of our inaugural class of Residents. A San Francisco based travel and short story writer, Chaney is working on his debut novel.

For this show, we will be listening to a reading of Chaney's short story Admission and talking about the story with the author.

Thank you for listening to the first Friends
