A facebook “colleague” of mine posted a link to this story. I rarely follow links, but this one was intriguing. I am working on another book with Don, not surprisingly about marginal experiences and I’m always looking for inspiration. Written , I found How Not to Ruin Your Daughters here at the fiction circus.
Here’s how not to ruin your daughters. First, do not stay married long enough for them to see your head thrown against a glass table. And if you must, divorce the man soon after. While divorcing him, say dramatic things like, “I deserve better.” Repeat these statements (aloud) for the rest of the girls’ lives and couple them with a vow of chastity.
…
This is pretty dark but absolutely beautiful in its jagged edges and unapologetic truth. Read the whole thing, it’s short and bitter. But, the question lurks, is this really marginal?
