Regular readers are aware – and new readers are invited to learn – that I have invented a literary form that I call the “fessay”, the fictional essay. I write an 800-word column about current events, except that I do it in the form of fiction.
Try it, you’ll like it. The newest one is a mordant swipe at the CIA’s pathetic intelligence-gathering apparatus. The one before that was a bitter synopsis of the cultural fallout from the Terry Schiavo case.
Go forth and read. In later years, you’ll be able to say that you were there at the inception. And please leave a comment.
