  • Old Truths

    1. She woke up belly down, the pillow wet with her drool. Her husband was gone, as he usually was, five-thirty, without a word or a kiss. She opened her eyes, stared at the blurry branches through the half open window. The night had been cool. She’d pulled the down over her. “Are you gonna’… Continue Reading

  • Girlfriends: Beginning & Ending

      By now you know there’s nothing chronological about these stories. My breakups were never like the literary breakups of film and book. They weren’t dramatic.

There was a sharp tug at my pajama bottoms—my… Continue Reading

  • Girlfriends: Heather

    Back from my trip overseas. Didn’t want to waste time getting back to work. Another anecdote about me and girlfriends for all of you. Heather had long blond hair and reminded me of Gwyneth Paltrow. She liked to wear a long overcoat with jeans or a black skirt underneath, and high leather boots. We shared… Continue Reading
