Exquisite Quartet
Once again, multitasker Meg Tuite asked me to contribute to her monthly "Exquisite Quartet" column in Used Furniture Review, and the result is here. Enjoy!

Meg Tuite's Exquisite Quartet
Meg Tuite was one of the features for my mega-reading during AWP. She also writes a regular column for Used Furniture Review called “Exquisite Quartet” (a pun on exquisite corpse). In her own words,
“Exquisite Quartet” is a collaboration of four writers who will put together a story, piece by piece. Each writer adds a bit more to the racy tale until, like an old beat-up sectional couch, it miraculously fits together. A disreputable, yet virginal theme will be chosen each month, as will three non-virginal writers. Meg Tuite will lead off the ménage a quatre.
In honor of the largess of AWP, this month's edition includes contributions from 33 writers, myself included. Check it out, and thanks to Meg for asking me to participate!
