Review Quotes
"Daniel Scott's stories lived for those occasions in which language morphs into something dangerous, taking on a life of its own. With wit, nerve and a disarming depth of feeling, Some of Us Have to Get Up in the Morning prowls through the imagination liked some dark, shining animal. A fierce debut." --- Paul Lisicky
