 “Black-Eyed Susan” by Thomas Pluck

Story 23/366

If Thomas Pluck weren’t an excellent writer, he would make an excellent superhero, swooping out of the dark night to protect the innocent and punish the wicked. His stories are fierce and often angry and always intelligent. This story appeared in Powder Burn Flash late last year and just seared a hole in the Internet. At first, it’s just a coupla rednecks coming into a bar…and it’s not the beginning of a joke, although a joke is told. You can read more of Pluck’s fiction here.

See you tomorrow.
