Working on a new #shortstory this week - #Millie

For more than forty years, Millie Caine walked the path her father prophesied. “You’ll never amount to to anything, my girl. Mark my words.”

Had she marked his words?

I just finished (I don’t know why!) A six part ‘murder mystery’ series.

While literary agents send me endless form rejections, someone approved that script, someone allegedly directed the actors and someone said ‘Yep, that’s ready.’

Maybe I need to aim for TV writing instead. The bar seems low.

At the close of a long, brutal pandemic, a group of hospital workers begin to breathe a sigh of relief—believing the worst has finally passed.

But their hope is short-lived.

Do short stories count?

I have two spicy ones that haven't gained any traction yet, so if anyone likes priests and questionable power dynamics, you may like my work.
