“DESIRE: REAL MASK”: Part three of my current short story has been posted. You can get the whole story-so-far here; or just the most recent (fall) episode here.

This episode is mostly about Holly, Laila, and Suha in high school, but also includes this little flashback: “Since early childhood I’d created these utterly obscure, private costume ideas–when I was ten I was ‘the ghost of a wolf,’ which was not even the most bizarre. I would ring the doorbells, waiting, secretly wishing that behind the cotton-cobwebbed doors I would find someone who would guess what I was. This, of course, never happened.”
