In honor of All Hallows’ Eve, a very special EXCERPT from Women On Food, a section I unhappily had to cut to fit page count. (I continue to curse the loss.) I asked volunteers to write a SHORT STORY with me. I started with a theme: A GHOST STORY ABOUT A GHOSTWRITER. From there, it took on a life of its own. Here is our "Exquisite Corpse,” courtesy of the very cool GRLSQUASH (a food, culture and art journal created for and by women). I’m so happy to see it live. HAPPY HALLOWEEN.
