The Dispensation of Marty

19thOct. × ’09

3 Things About This Micro-fiction

  1. Strangely enough I find organized crime makes for dull prose. Even the motivations are cliche.
  2. It’s all about the whacking. Dysfunctional families who whack.
  3. So I don’t really like this piece. But I haven’t the heart to bury it.
