New Readers Report: Remorse

Art by Christi­na Wei­d­man

Closed out 2014 with a pub­li­ca­tion in the lat­est Rum­pus Read­ers Report, this time on the theme “Remorse.” Big thanks to Susan Clements, who edits the series and always picks a fas­ci­nat­ing mix of pieces, and Christi­na Wei­d­man, who brings them to life with her illus­tra­tions. Also hon­ored to be pub­lished again along­side a tru­ly gift­ed writer and friend Jimin Han. Wish­ing every­one a fan­tas­tic 2015!

Why he did Paul couldn’t fig­ure, but when he said this out loud, his wife, Jeanette, respond­ed, ‘The dev­il you know.’”
