Safety Pin Review

A nice young man named Simon Jacobs asked me to be the inaugural story for his new venture, “The Safety Pin Review” which is a pretty cool concept; wearable stories.

The stories are all 30 words or less and are written on a patch that is then worn for a week on the back of a jacket. It’s a portable story of sorts.

I thought it was a cool idea and I love the challenge of Hint Fiction…making something that has a strong impact with not a whole lot of words.

I hope I accomplished that.



Simon also does a weekly college radio show called "Centerpiece" and he was kind enough to say a bunch of nice things about the story and about my writing during this week’s show. You can listen to it here. AND he plays some NEUTRAL MILK HOTEL so, that is also a bonus!

Thank you Simon and to everyone else, SEND HIM SOMETHING! Get your words worn!
