I have a little sumin sumin up at Wigleaf called “Phantom Energy.” I also have a postcard there. The story can be read here, the postcard can be read here. You don’t have to read either in any order, but you must read both. Oh yes, you must.
Also, a few weeks ago I did this post about what makes a professional writer. Camille Gooderham Campbell — recently promoted to Managing Editor at Every Day Fiction — has tackled this issue not from the point of view of a writer (which seemed to mostly be the case here) but as an editor. Definitely worth checking out to get one editor’s POV, especially if you’re looking to try to place something with EDF 
Finally, make sure you check out the mini-contest I’ve got going. We’re already up to giving away two copies of the magazine. Let’s increase that number considerably, shall we?
really great story, robert
The story is quite odd ballish and the uncertain ending that leaves the answer to imagination certainly gauged my interest further.
I also thank for the link. I am gathering as many google reader subscriptions from editor and writer blogs and getting lessons in etiquette. I will launch my own site soon and extra preparation is due.
shhh. I’m listening.
yes Nice story. I found something of my wife in the “she” character.
And the DMV? “I’ve been to hell…and they call it the DMV…anyone who’s been there knows exactly what I mean…”
Ravi — thanks!
Harry — odd ballish is my specialty.
Aaron — though certainly not as extreme, my wife inspired the female character. she’s ALWAYS going on about saving electricity, keeping lights turned off, the computer turned off, etc.
Nice work, Robert.
thanks, jordan
Robert, excellent piece, perhaps my favorite of yours (the PANK and EDF ones are close seconds). Well, actually the elimae piece is in the mix.
very nice of you to say, dave, thanks!
I enjoyed both…thanks for sharing, Robert!
thanks for reading, kathleen
