Hey, Quick Story ...
There is a primitive pleasure that comes with telling or hearing a short story. Whether you've got something to share, or you want to be entertained by a friend who has something to share, good short stories move us ... and then they move on.
MattLally.com is my story-telling outlet; some I wrote, some I heard and want to pass along. Feedback is welcome; your own stories are welcome. Thanks for stopping by, and enjoy the site!

May 16, 2010: "I don't worry," he said, "but I can't keep from thinking." / "Don't think," I said. "Just take it easy." / "I'm taking it easy," he said and looked straight ahead. He was evidently holding tight onto himself about something. (from "A Day's Wait" by Ernest Hemingway)
April 18, 2010: I'm about halfway through 20th Century Ghosts and wondering how I missed out on Joe Hill until now. Dude's amazing. "Pop Art" is as good as everyone says, and (speaking of baseball), "Better Than Home" might be my early favorite.
April 5, 2010: "I want to be the ball and the bat and the mound/and the sweat and the grass." Cheers to another season. Watching St. Louis at Cincinnati. Harang struck out the first two batters he faced, before Pujols took him deep. He then got Holliday to line to short to end the top of the first. Check out "Immortality" by Sandra Beasley for the rest of the poem, from I Was the Jukebox .
