Young's Other Writings
Young's essay One Writer’s Big Innings, a comic look at the struggles of a young writer, was reprinted in AWP Chronicle, nominated for a Pushcart Prize, and won the Black Warrior Review’s Best of the 1990s Nonfiction Award in 2002.
Young continued to write and publish in the wake of the One of the Guys controversy. He began work on a multi-volume historical novel based on the half-century of conflict between the alcoholic pro-German newspaper publisher Cissy Patterson and her daughter, the Countess Felicia Gizycka, who was one of the founding female members of Alcoholics Anonymous.
