Hello, Everyone.
I've posted a new short story for your enjoyment. It runs at 5,048 words. This is my first attempt to use the Shantaram Story Architecture. It was quite challenging as SSA is a process for novel development, not short stories.
If you look close you will find a mythic structure that the story is woven upon. Concerning the narrative itself, it is fiction based upon events that occurred in my younger years. Of course, there is a great deal of literary license used to fit the narrative within the framework.
Anyway, I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I did writing it.
