Jesus Loves You But Not Today

Jesus Loves You But Not Today is the first volume in the Canvas Sextet series of contemporary literary fiction comprised of single page stories that are darkly comic, tragic, and often hilarious. The stories are composed with only as many words as can be fit onto one standard blank page in Word, single spaced using 12-point font in Times Roman. The stories are provocative and unsettling, dramatic narrative condensed down to an essence. In The Chamber, a man commits state-sanctioned suicide; a tough young female Mexican fighter tries to earn a title shot in Wet Work. In Elevator Music a Manhattan businesswoman becomes a sexual predator, while Eat Me 'Til I'm Gone imagines a sky funeral in Tibet. In Memory of All That finds a woman making a very troubling purchase and in Summa Cum Laude a bright young coed uses her wiles to get ahead. An aging diva gets some necessary help in Ice Cream and Gin and a slave mounts a bloody rebellion in The Devil You Don't. The stories are told in vivid, sometimes graphic imagery with rich, evocative prose that makes for compelling and hypnotic reading that is highly entertaining and often surprising.
