"Six Days of Absolute Heck"

By Michael Seese

A quick hitter...

Way back in August of last year, agent Janet Reid had one of her 100-word contests. I think this was the first I read about. Using the words:

junk
dignity
gunbelt
hungover
punch

I wrote "Six Days Of Absolute Heck." It was OK, but needed some work. I refined it, and kept it in my back pocket.

One day, I learned that another agent, Sarah LaPolla, publishes author-submitted short stories on her blog. I sent it to her in April, and several weeks later, she accepted it.

The new and improved "Six Days Of Absolute Heck" appeared today on her Glass Cases blog.
