I wrote this story while at the Odyssey Writing Workshop. I'd been despairing over another story based on the same basic idea. No matter what rewrites I tried, the original story remained disjointed and flat. Then--in a Muse-descending-from-on-high moment--the idea for this one came to me. I guess working through the journal entries and writing exercises that Odyssey director Jeanne Cavelos assigned paid off!
