Three Times Fast

On September 1st, my latest short fiction piece, “Three Times Fast,” will appear in Geek Force Five.

The story takes place in a fictionalized version of my college campus. I took the photo above at my alma mater last fall.

Here’s a sneak peek:

Caroline knows that the breathing she hears behind her, ragged and shallow, is just Max (a pack-a-day smoker), but she bites down on her lower lip to squelch a scream. Copper floods her mouth. It’s only five steps across the narrow room from the nightmare door to the green metal door that leads to the tunnels proper, but her feet sink in the wet cement of her terrified childhood, and each step takes approximately a year, one for each year the nightmare came.
