Story ideas come out of nowhere, often from the least expected thing or location. For example, my job recently relocated about 5 miles up the road from the previous spot, and that short distance makes a huge difference due to traffic congestion at the very end… at the last mile.

Not one to look a gift idea in the mouth, once the idea hit me of what I could do with that small difference, I went to work on a new short story. It’s nearly done now, just resting while I step away for a bit, so I can edit it with fresh eyes.

This is the fourth new story in the past few months, joining “I Am”, “Becoming”, and “Dorothy Parker Knew” in the list. Let’s keep the momentum going, shall we?
