"Grounded" is Live

I am humbled and awed to present to you my first published short story, "Grounded."

Before you read, I should warn you that there are themes of abuse and mistreatment. It is not a warm fuzzy story. It's not even a nice story. But it does present a glimmer of hope.

If you are a personal friend who would not expect these themes from me, I urge you to read a disclaimer at "Why Getting Published Makes Me Sad" to understand my heart about this.

And now, without further ado:

Grounded
