With all the pressure to reach in your pocket and "BUY BUY BUY! YOUR LOVE FOR YOUR CHILDREN IS BASED ON HOW MUCH DEBT YOU RACK UP FOR THE NEW YEAR!" these days, I think you all need a well-deserved break from the machine's insistent need to be fed.
About twenty years ago, I had my first consensual sexual experience, it was traumatic and life-changing. I also participated in an act of brutal savagery motivated by insecurity, which affected me just as strongly.
A few years back, I took some time and wrote these experiences down in the form of a thirteen thousand word narrative called "Guacamole Baseball".
Names have been changed and characters compressed to protect the innocent, and guilty.
