Hadley Moore is at work on a collection of thematically linked short fiction focused on characters who have a fascination with or perceive some connection to the assassinations of the 1960s. Portions of this manuscript have appeared in the Cincinnati Review, the Santa Monica Review, and the Ocean State Review, which also nominated her for a Pushcart Prize. The project was shortlisted for both the 2022 and 2023 Granum Prize; and was the first finalist for the 2021 and 2022 Levis Prize, for alumni of the MFA Program for Writers at Warren Wilson College.
Her first collection, Not Dead Yet and Other Stories, won Autumn House Press’s 2018 fiction contest, and received many other commendations, including being longlisted for the 2020 PEN/Robert W. Bingham Prize for Debut Short Story Collection.
Moore's short stories, novel excerpts, and nonfiction have appeared in Newsweek, McSweeney’s Quarterly Concern, Witness, Amazon’s Day One, the Alaska Quarterly Review, the revived December, the Indiana Review, Anomaly (formerly Drunken Boat), Quarter After Eight, Confrontation, The Drum, Sequestrum, Ascent, Midwestern Gothic, Redux, Knee-Jerk Magazine, and other publications.
