Recommended Read: "The Husband Across the Hall"

If you've got three minutes for an encounter with flash fiction, read Andrew Roe's "The Husband Across the Hall." Here's the opening paragraph:

There is a husband across the hall who looks at me. Two doors down, to the left, opposite side, near the emergency exit, with a wife I never see, yet I know she exists because there have been periodic sightings over the years, like the sightings of a rare, delicate, beautifully named bird.

And here is Roe's blog: Title TK. Roe reads from his work next weekend in San Diego in what may well be this country's premiere reading series for up-and-coming writers: Jim Ruland's Vermin on the Mount. Wish I could be there. If you're within striking distance, I envy you.

Thanks for stopping by.
