Four Minutes: A Fundraising Short Story
In April of 2017, musing on the implications of the (first) Trump Administration, I wrote the short story “Four Minutes,” a glimpse into an imagined near-future fascist state. I sold the story for a month as a part of my 2017 Year of Resistance, wherein I posted stories each month for that month only, with all proceeds going to the ACLU.
Well, the specific fascist future I envisioned in “Four Minut

question:
Well, part of it might have been that when I wrote that book about a dead baby, I was a new father! So I was writing about that tragedy while my little daughter slept in a bassinet next to me. It made it very raw and real for me.

“See, forgiveness doesn't happen all at once. It's not an event -- it's a process. Forgiveness happens while you're asleep, while you're dreaming, while you're inline at the coffee shop, while you're showering, eating, farting, jerking off. It happens in the back of your mind, and then one day you realize that you don't hate the person anymore, that your anger has gone away somewhere. And you understand. You've forgiven them. You don't know how or why. It sneaked up on you. It happened in the small spaces between thoughts and in the seconds between ideas and blinks. That's where forgiveness happens. Because anger and hatred, when left unfed, bleed away like air from a punctured tire, over time and days and years. Forgiveness is stealth. At least, that's what I hope.”
