Floods and Fall…
As I mentioned in my last post, Wien (that’s Vienna to you Colonials) almost washed away in a five-day deluge. Now, the trains are limping along on a limited schedule, the waters are receding, and Autumn is here. Alas for the Dog Days of summer. By the way, did you know the Dog Days got their name from the rising of the star system Sirius, which is known colloquially as the “Dog Star”? The things you learn, aye?
Floods or no, things are buzzing here at the MEF garret. Look for more tales going live this month. How will you know when a new story breaks free? Glad you asked, Friends. Read On!
Drum roll and… Meanwhile, don’t miss any upcoming stories. You can stay tuned for all the latest by following the MEF blog:

And finally, with your indulgence, allow me to plug a collection of short stories. What can I say? I need to pay the virtual rent and you need some summer reading. So… how about a whole barrel of short stories to read whole bailing out the lifeboats? That’s right, folks, it’s here! U6 Stories awaits your hungry reader eyes:
U6 Stories – Vienna Underground Tales
Every train carries a story.
The U6 is one line of the Vienna underground transit system. The silver and red trains carry stories, many stories. A woman mourns her musical lover, and a man discovers his courage. A Syrian family flees to a fragile new beginning, and a young man helps circus performers during a pandemic. Lovers rediscover each other after decades apart, and a man finds a father he never knew. A contract is broken, and neighbors defend their own. Eighteen tales of love lost and found, of the darkness within us, and the glimmering light that keeps us afloat. Unforgettable characters struggle against the pressures of an impersonal world, and against the burdens they carry within. Welcome, Reader, to the stories of the U6.
