Dear Potential Reader,
Is this the first appearance of The Hatchback Woman, aka The Lady? No. But THE BAG, this month’s free-to-read short story, has been the 1st story in all the publications, introducing the readers to Alan Tuel and his first chance meeting with the woman who has something for everyone.
As with last month, 2023 will present a monthly run of tales of the Hatchback Woman. These have been made available in several collections, and one day will see print along with the other 40 or so tales that currently exist. She’s one of my favorite characters to tap into her world and mythology. Look for how she came to be part of the JIREverse in an upcoming BEHIND THE SCENES post. Or click here, to read about how her stories were originally formulated.
Hope you enjoy.
All the best,
DAN JIRE
