"Harris possesses an astute sense of storytelling. His characterizations are masterful and his dialogue sure. He writes of those at war with themselves and others, fighting battles that lie beyond easy comprehension."

~ Sue Walker, Poet Laureate of Alabama

"Wounds That Bind is a fierce, gut-wrenching collection, but always beneath the hard edges one senses deep love and understanding for the men and women life has not always treated gently."

~ Mark Powell, novelist
