Friday Flash Fiction: “Assassination”
Happy Presidents Day, everyone! (No? Too soon?) This piece is a first for me, in that it combines elements from two previous 512 stories: futurismic police detectives Jake and Andy, who first appeared in “The Forty,” and the alien race…
Friday Flash Fiction: “Royal Pains”
