ABOUT

Bari Lynn Hein was the winner of the 2024 Bethesda Short Story Contest, a finalist in the 2018 Saturday Evening Post Great American Fiction Contest, and a semifinalist in contests sponsored by Cutbank and Phoebe. Her stories are published in dozens of journals across twelve countries, among them The Saturday Evening PostPrime Number, and The Baltimore Review, as well as four anthologies. Now she’s at work on a novel set in Baltimore in the 1970s.

She’s happy to be working with her agent, Elizabeth Trupin-Pulli, of JET Literary Associates, Inc.

Bari reads flash fiction for Fractured Lit. She’s a wife–of painter Gregory Hein–mother, feminist, cockeyed optimist, amateur genealogist, art lover, music lover, and former bakery manager who still loves to bake… all of which factor into her writing.
