Toews, Mitchell

Mitchell Toews left his job in 2016 to devote himself to writing and poverty. Since then, Mitch has placed 125 short stories in literary journals, anthologies, and contests. His debut book is a collection of short stories with a definite Mennonite slant—you’ll have to read the book to understand what that is—titled “Pinching Zwieback” ( At Bay Press, Canada, 2023). A novel is underway, under contract with a publisher, and overall has been described as “Fargo, with a Canadian accent.”
