EDF’s “Lester”

Today’s bit of Every Day Fiction is “Lester’s Lucky Day” by Anne Marie Gomez.  The current ranking is 4.6/5, and it almost never gets that high.  But the story completely deserves it.  While the beginning is kind of dry (and you think you know where it’s going to go), the ending catches you by complete surprise.  I highly recommend checking it out: http://www.everydayfiction.com/lesters-lucky-day-by-anne-marie-gomez/.  I promise it’ll be a good time.

EDF Barber’s Chair

So Every Day Fiction, my every day guilty pleasure, has kicked off its second year in publication today with KC Ball’s “I Must to the Barber’s Chair.”  And what a way to start!

Their first year’s strories were usually quite strong, but this story marks the bar high for its second.  The story is simplistic, yet elaborate.  You know quite a lot about the characters given how much you’re actually told.  BASICALLY, it’s a wonderful piece and you should go check it out.  And sign up to get it every day – where you might find me once again.  Hopefully.
