Tom Noyes' second story collection, Spooky Action at a Distance and Other Stories, was published in March 2008 by Dufour Editions. His first book, Behold Faith and Other Stories (Dufour, 2003), was shortlisted for Stanford Libraries William Saroyan Prize, and reviewed favorably in many publications, including the New York Times Book Review,where it was praised for its "macabre wit and startling confessions of frailty and delusion." Before coming to Behrend, Dr. Noyes taught in the creative writing programs at Indiana State University and Concordia College in Moorhead, Minnesota. Now a consulting editor for Lake Effect, he previously worked on the editorial staffs of the literary journals Ascent and Quarter After Eight. He earned his Ph.D. at Ohio University and his M.F.A. at Wichita State University.

Stories have appeared recently in Ascent, Colorado Review, Elixir, Eureka, Image, Laurel Review, Mid-American Review and other journals.
