Short Story: Spare Tire

Writer’s Note: I started writing this last year.  Yes, last year in 2017.  I finally decided to go back and finish it.  I thought about the polar opposites when writing this and how relationships work and don’t work. It was supposed to be a… Continue Reading “Short Story: Spare Tire”

Short Story: Albertine and Josephine

I placed twenty-dollar bills into his hand, making sure he saw each one.  BB looked at me, showing a little bit of sorrow on his face.  He knew who they truly belonged to.  He also missed her as much as I did.  I should’ve… Continue Reading “Short Story: Albertine and Josephine”
