These stories began as Facebook status updates, and each was limited to 420 characters—barely a paragraph. So I began reading, and I was like, “What’s the point?” Sure these brief stories were well-written, but there was no big picture. Still, I kept reading, and discovered nurses named Ann O’Dyne, satires of Beatrix Potter, and openings like, “His shoot failed to open.” They grew on me!
Lou Beach has always been a clever rascal, I'd never underestimate him.
