Story - The Light Fantastic
A bar owner rents to a lonely woman struggling to make ends meet.
A short Über story where 'Fractured Fairy Tales' mixes with 'The Twilight Zone' when strangers meet in a small town. The impossible becomes the possible when all the right ingredients come together. These characters may be revisited in future stories, their boundaries seem limitless. I felt rather... inspired to write something about unlikely acts of heroism, and the unlimited possibilities of the human spirit -- and beyond.
