"Gentlemen of the Jury" (Fiction Extra)
Gentlemen of the Jury, we are here to decide not only the fate of the defendant but the entire judicial system. The question we put in front of you is simple. Will we allow the architect of a heinous crime liberty? My esteemed colleague will tell you that the defendant is not responsible for the actions of his creation. My esteemed colleague will argue that Victor Von Frankenstein is merely the victim of circumstance. According to honorable Herr Rosenblatt, Victor Von Frankenstein deserves pity not consecutive life sentences.
This offer begins and ends on December 9. So if you have money, feel free to subscribe for a year and you too can read.
"Bus Stop at Night" by Tim Lieder (Fiction Extra)
I’m still working on the next John Cheever article. It’s for “The Children” which is like Pot of Gold but much funnier and messier. Only this week I got a bunch of jobs. Those college students must have learned that their professors can now detect AI (aka plagiarism software) all at once. Very exhausting week. Anyhow this short story was originally published in “Fusing Horizons” and I think that was a zine so I could probably sell first rights again since I don’t know if you can even find it in the wild. That said, I like this story much better than I thought I would. I do enjoy playing with limited perspective and I manage to balance it nicely.
Finally, I am making this offer because I am hurting for money so if you can’t afford $25, but still want to support me feel free to donate to my gofundme. Even $5 will help. I am currently trying to transition to a different day job as ChatGPT stole most of my academic fraud work.
I also have a publishing company. You can buy my books including She Nailed a Stake Through His Head and The Big Bow Mystery by Israel Zangwill.
And of course, I will still write articles on John Cheever including
“The Day the Pig Fell into the Well” (The Stories of John Cheever)
“In the summer, when the Nudd family gathered at Whitebeach Camp, in the Adirondacks, there was always a night when one of them would ask 'Remember the day the pig fell into the well?' Then, as if the opening note of a sextet had been sounded, the others would all rush into their favorite parts, like those families who sing Gilbert and Sullivan, and the…
As well as the Book of Job.
Job Chapter 18
As a good liberal social media user, I should hate Joel Osteen. I've seen the memes. I know he locked up his church at the worst time. He makes money off of Jesus. Yet, I don't. Not being a Christian, I don't care about Christian hypocrisy. More importantly, the few times I found Osteen sermons on YouTube, I heard “You are loved. You matter. Even if you…
Of course if you have a paid subscription, this will add to your current paid subscription.

Glad to! Love John Cheever and Job is so inspirational in the strange way that it is. Hope you get quite a few subscribers. All the best, John.
