Not just any bet. THE Bet.
Which meant that I had to write a short story from a title given to me by David Lubar.
That title was “Geriatric Jitterbug.” You can download the story here. (Right click to Save As.) Â It is probably safe to say that it’s not for young eyes.
I will update this post as my fellow betters (bettees?) upload their stories.
UPDATE: Here are links to the other short stories.
- Every Superhero Needs One by Andrew (title by Kimberly)
- The Dumbass Partners by David (title by Catherine)
- Herman Munster is Still Alive by Kimberly (title by me)
Now that all the stories are up, I’ll be reading them tonight!
Four free short stories for you. Woo hoo!
I just finished reading your story during my study hall and I had to hold back tears when I reached the ending. The entire story was fantastic (a wonderful outcome of you bet, if I do say so myself.)! I am fascinated by the way you decided to have the main character be the observer rather than the one being observed. Overall: a very well done short story, bravo!
