My Wife Is A Lesbian

“My wife is a lesbian” is a short story idea I recently came up with.  I thought it had all kinds of possibilities but I didn’t want to make the story a cliche.

How a writer deals with a story line will have a lot to do with whether or not the story comes out trite.

Now of course since I’m a flash fiction writer I was going to use the form of the short short and the very short story to guide me.  And since I fancy myself a literary writer I was going to use understatement.  Nothing over the top.  I was going to use dialogue and everything I’ve learned from Hemingway and Raymond Carver, my writing mentors.  And I was going to blog about it.  Of course the story takes place in Pittsburgh.

Here for your reading pleasure is “Wife, Woman and Lover.”  Just click on this link: www.authspot.com/Short-Stories/Woman-Wife-and-Lover-fiction.622331
