I actually wrote a short story with no dragons, elves, faeries, or unicorns in it. No, no werewolves or vampires or shapeshifters, either. It's completely "normal." **GASP** I had entered The Old Victorian (which is posted here) in the last contest, and now, I'm going to enter Confessions of a Mafia Wife. I got the idea from a dream, no less. The entire dream was a woman with her head in her hands across the table from a detective in an interrogation room. I expanded a wee bit. :) Tully's husband has been arrested in the murder of Reeves DeLuca, and she is claiming innocence to his Mafia ties to Detective Gato. I resubmitted to my writers' group, so we'll see how it goes next Saturday!
