New fiction from Ryan Werner

Rock star and writer and guy-I-refer-to-a-lot-because-we-swap-ideas-on-writing-all-the-time Ryan Werner has a new story up at Jersey Devil Press.  In the same vein as Ryan’s music-based flash fiction over at Our Band Could Be Your Lit, this story, “Carbon,” is based on a rock song, this time Bruce Springsteen‘s “Adam Raised a Cain.”

It’s really cool.  Go read it.

Then listen to some Springsteen, because Ryan claims to hate the guy but I think The Boss is pretty damned cool.
