Fiction

 

What’s a Woman to Do?  Carolyn McGovern

I spot his eyes darting around the bar.  Guilty eyes.   The girls are about to come out.  You can tell my man senses this because he has straightened himself up...

 

Surprise at the Salon  Janna Qualman

The shattering of glass...nearly made me plop a brick right then and there...My lurch away from the window didn't coordinate with the hairdresser's jerky motion toward it...     

 

The Cat’s Meow  Janet Yung

She’d never been a ball of fire...hard to get to know and impossible at maintaining long term relationships. This last fact made more obvious by Dan’s recent announcement, “I’m leaving you.”

 

Sobbing for Stilettos  Windy Lynn Harris

My arches were aching, and I wasn’t able to wear anything but tennis shoes without pain. Tennis shoes are for the gym...and I was having trouble coming up with cute outfits to go with them.

 

 

 

 

Fiction

 

 Football Shower  Alyssa Baumann

“You don’t have any friends, hon. That’s your problem.” My sister raised a professionally shaped eyebrow at me as she delivered her comment.

 

Closure  Jody L.  DeLong

It has been months since I have been here.  Just the beginning of spring, as a matter of fact, so it seems fitting that I am here, now, to end things, when the trees are once again bare.  Closure, Sarah had called it.   

 

Oh Danny Boys  Susan Solomon

Often, Karen tells me things that I already know.  But she does so in such a soft and confident way that each thing sounds new and fascinating to me...
