Want to Read a Short Story?

My short story, Sorrow in the Shape of a Soldier's Smile, is online today at Danse Macabre. It's dark, but not horror, and was inspired by this photo:

Your story was awesome! I hope you find the picture that inspired it, you've really got me curious.

I actually read it a couple of days ago and then forgot to come back here and comment. :-0

CR - I found the photo and added it to the post! Thank you so much for reading the story.

The old cliche about pictures and words comes to mind... these were very good thousand words (or so).

Also interesting to see where a story came from - literally.

What a fantastic story! That picture is amazing, too. It hits on so many levels. I think I'm inspired to check out deviant art today for inspiration.
