Marcus Speh has written a most affecting and existential story which is now at Pure Slush LATEST, and titled: "The Serious Writer and his Mother."
Truly not to be missed story!

Love his Serious Writer stories. Will get over to read this one, thanks for the heads up, Susan.
Thank you, Susan. This is a rather personal story. The original is longer. For the purpose of this serious writer medley, matt potter has expertly edited me back to basics & tightened these pieces considerably. i'm grateful to him & to all readers & commenters. as is the serious writer, whose "<a href="http://atticusreview.org/the-last-story/">last story</a>" just appeared at atticus review.
I agree with Susan and Kathy that this is a gratifying read. Thanks, Matt Potter, for grouping the stories. I loved reading the serious writer voice again.
