I met Randall Chase on the subway, late one Thursday night. I was on the way home from a movie and a few drinks with girlfriends at a nearby bar, and when we both boarded at Union Square, he sat down across from me. I noticed his shoes above the pages of my magazine: Adidas, new, tastefully gray (none of the fluorescent orange stuff the kids are so crazy about these days).

This is why I do not write. I cannot write. How do you even attempt such a thing when you read something that is this interesting. So FUCKING interesting, without even having a real point. I mean, sure I could make one up. There are one hundred one things I could get from this. In reality however, there was no point.

I think I'm going to remain content being a reader. Maybe that's the key to becoming a writer?

Thank-you.

I'm glad you all liked the story so much. Whitney is a fantastic writer, and you can find lots of her stuff at her Website, or by Googling her name. She also edits a top notch literary magazine called Pindeldyboz.
