The Agreement

My little ghost story, “The Agreement,” is now up at Abyss and Apex.

Amusingly enough, this is the story that almost became a ghost — in the sense that I wrote and finished it in a rush late in the evening, saved it, and flopped over in bed — only to wake up the next morning to find that the computer was dead, dead, dead and I had not followed my usual process of saving a completed story in more than one location.

Getting the story off the dead hard drive was a saga in and of itself, and when I did get it off, I immediately shot it off to Abyss and Apex with absolutely nothing else — by which I mean formatting, cover letter, the usual stuff. Luckily the flash fiction editor liked it anyway, and here it is now, no longer a ghost.
