(Ed note: NPR's All Things Considered's contest has a simple premise: Listeners send in original short stories that can be read in three minutes or less. This week is Round 8, for which contestants were asked to send original works of fiction that begin with this sentence: "She closed the book, placed it on the table, and finally, decided to walk through the door." -- sdh )
NIn Andrews "Thups" is featured this week. Congratulations Nin! :
Thups
She closed the book, placed it on the table, and finally, decided to walk through the door. She opened it just a crack first. Thankfully, it was still too early for thups. But Emma knew that the day would come soon.
Congratulations, Nin.
