Ready
I loved school when I was a kid, but even so, I had a gnawing belly every single day when my dad drove me to school. The Convent of the Visitation School had a long driveway that sloped steadily downward, so I could see the building growing larger over the dashboard as we approached. The gnawing increased as we veered right around the playground fence toward the big doors of the Montessori Level II wing. I’d have my bookbag, my shoe bag, and some project or other so my hands were too full for the door handle, so my dad would reach across me to push the door open. He didn’t say good-bye. He’d say, “Sock it to ‘em!” and in I’d go.
Today, the Prized blog tour takes me to Taming the Bookshelf, where among other things, Tara asks me about my e-short story, “Tortured,” which will be out in December.
Hello again!
I have two questions about Tortured which you may or may not be allowed to answer. : )
1. Will I be able to read it even though I don’t have a Kiddle, Nook, etc?
2. Approximately how long is it? (Longer than your previous short stories?)
Thanks!

I don’t know any way to read it without an e-reader, but if I hear of one, I’ll post that on my blog. It is longer than the stories on my site, close to the length of a chapter in Birthmarked.
All best,
