Firstly, I want to express my gratitude to the editors of The First Line. The Interview is my second written work to be featured in The First Line and I am proud to be a return contributor. Secondly, The First Line is a great literary magazine with an interesting premise. Each story in the magazine begins with a given opening sentence. Hence, The First Line.

Read The InterviewNaturally, everyone loves a good read. There is no doubt that The First Line is a quirky mix, an entire issue where every story begins with the same sentence. It’s great fun to see what wildly different stories a single sentence may inspire. You can peruse current and back issues at:
Which is both a segue and a clue. To illustrate: First, the segue: Things are nuts here at MEF, as in a silly dream. Secondly, the clue: the latest story in the works is a play within a story, and the play is… you guessed it! The Bard himself.
The virtual mail is piling up on the doorstep: Rejections, acceptances, publishing notices. Not to mention the impending release of the latest issue of Hotch Potch. Too many hats to wear, and too many irons in the fire. But Lo! We love the madness, don’t we? Makes one feel all alive and tingly.
That’s it, Lovely Readers! I hope you enjoy this latest bit of dark fiction. Meanwhile, don’t miss any upcoming stories. You can stay tuned for all the latest by following the MEF blog:
