Looking for a couple of people interested in swapping a short story, 10,000 words or less. The story I'm hoping to get read is literary horror, and is approximately 7660 words. I'll put the opening below. Please respond here or send a private message if interested. Thanks!

The Ascent Made Him Plunge


Francisco stepped through The Doors, and almost stumbled back out when Wabi pounced from around the bar, bright smile splitting his mustached face, wiry arms opened wide in a hug that pulled Francisco into intimate contact with him.

“My man!” The words vibrated in Wabi’s chest, and if possible, he pulled Francisco closer, their thin frames pressed flat together threatening to become one. Francisco peered past Wabi’s shoulders to the windows at the other end of The Doors, and contemplated breaking the bar owner’s hold and pushing, sprinting him through the tinted glass to the ground five stories below.

“My band’s been practicing that song you wrote for me last month, and it’s going awesome!”
