My very short story “The Follies of Adulthood” turned out to be a nice hit on Medium.
Some reader feedback:
“Hits hard in the best way.”
“This is pure love!”
“You capture something so many parents will feel in their bones. And that last line? Perfectly earned.”
Read it for free on my blog, and subscribe for more “hard hitting” stories and essays.
Medium continues to surprise me as a place for genuine, thoughtful engagement on long form content. (And to make a little money from it, too.)
I always publish to my blog first (and it’s always open and free), but if you use Medium and want to support me there, here’s the paywalled Medium link for the story:
