Flash piece, Dogs is up at Literary Underground

 So, this year we've had cats and bears featured in published flash fictions. Now it's time for Dogs to make a showing at The Literary Underground. 


The story behind the story: A stick library for dogs actually exists, in Cambridge (of course), Massachusetts. I read about it and went with it. Click the pic to see more about it. 


HISTORY of The Literary Underground
It Started With the Wiki
The Literary Underground Wiki was created in June 2010 to compile a shared knowledge base about the underground press. It was an open-source encyclopedia written collaboratively by the people who used it. The Literary Underground Wiki covered the history, production, distribution and culture of the underground press.
