new microfiction from Wayne Dean RIchards

TO ME

My brother said, “We haven’t spoken for years, so why ring now?”

I told him opposite Langley Green Station there’s a canal and beside it's a partially demolished factory and my idea was to live in the space between the partially demolished factory and the canal and I wanted to know if he thought that was strange.

My brother thought for a bit, then said, “Yeah, I do.”
But having decided that to me it didn’t seem so strange,
I packed a bag, and leaving everything else behind set off.

All About and Contributors

HELP OUTSIDELEFT

Outsideleft exists on a precarious no budget budget. We are interested in hearing from deep and deeper pocket types willing to underwrite our cultural vulture activity. We're not so interested in plastering your product all over our stories, but something more subtle and dignified for all parties concerned. Contact us and let's talk. [HELP OUTSIDELEFT]

WRITE FOR OUTSIDELEFT

If Outsideleft had arms they would always be wide open and welcoming to new writers and new ideas. If you've got something to say, something a small dank corner of the world needs to know about, a poem to publish, a book review, a short story, if you love music or the arts or anything else, write something about it and send it along. Of course we don't have anything as conformist as a budget here. But we'd love to see what you can do. Write for Outsideleft, do. [SUBMISSIONS FORM HERE]
