Truckin' April 2004 (Vol. 3, Issue 4)
Bored? Read my literary blog-zine. This sensational issue features seven new stories, and three of them are from yours truly; a Miami story, a Vegas story, and something special I wrote for someone special. My favorite Norwegian blogger Sigge, shared a witty tale about my clone. Hilarious. Paris Wispy returns with a sultry tale called Ward. All the way from New Zealand, Richard Bulkeley is back with another excellent read. And lastly, Jessica E. Lapidus concludes the second part to her intense story: rancor. So sit back, relax, and enjoy. Thanks for coming back, McG

4. Roadside Assistance by Tenzin McGrupp

5. The Kindness of Strangers by Richard Bulkeley
A dishevelled young man yelled a greeting at me from the other side of the street. He wore a ragged grey coat that looked like he had looted it from a German soldier on the retreat from Moscow... More
6. rancor. (Part II) by Jessica E. Lapidus

7. Maggie's Flight... Another Miami Story by Tenzin McGrupp
It's always interesting when you are out of your tits stoned and are semi-interrogated by law enforcement figures. Those were the same night stick wielding yahoos who had been beating up protestors weeks before... More
