We are back with another short story, written by your boy. This is a tight little short about Franklin (a schizophrenic shut-in, with a deceased abusive father, and a live-in caretaker). I’ve always been interested in these types of stories and I am happy to bring this little on to the world.

We got into a short & sweet & tight story by my good friend Jesse Draham (the Rabbit Man)!

While on my way to pick up my kid, my rear brake light went out. We called my (other) brother Andy Cheslock about how I called the whop while I was on my way to them with “breaks that went out”. An impromptu hilarious conversation ensues.
