"'Playing in the Dirt' is terrific, inventive, and creepy!"

- Barbara McLaughlin, Author

"'Playing in the Dirt' is reminiscent to 'Flowers for Algernon'... On the surface Diamanti's piece is dark humor ending with a quick punch. Dig deeper and it takes you into the mind of a mentally deficient individual capable of great evil--this is a thought provoking story."

- Andrew Miller, Author

"It's been hard for me to find just the right word for this chilling story, but I'll settle for terrific."
