New Story in 3:AM

I have a new story called "Black Holes" up in 3:AM. (Thank you Susan...) It's such a good feeling finding homes for young, homeless stories rejected by the administrations of so many orphanages, after so much crying and me petting the stories and saying, "There, there," only to make myself feel better. But now, another one of those little stories can sleep soundly in a nice, warm bed near a big window with a view of the backyard playground, the slide and the swing set, and just beyond that the school where the little story will meet other little stories, make friends, laugh and play...

Hi, Red. Thanks, I'm happy you liked it. The waiter's my favorite, very stoic...

I liked it. I got a little bit of a Vonnegut vibe. Good job.

Thanks, Ben. A 'Vonnegut vibe.' That makes me very happy...
