Laura Ansara

Perfect bit of flash fiction. It makes me want to check out other things she has written but it looks like I’ll have to wait. From her dsf.com bio: “A dark ending with a pathway to hope is always preferable to the happy, tidy one. ... She's currently writing a trilogy built in a similar world of "sims" with different characters.“

This story opens on a couple just getting to know each other. They’d shared a “disdain for the state”. Tricky business when admitting that to someone you don’t know very well. That is all I can say.
