The Recital

Description

I’m excited to be included in 25 Servings of SOOP Volume II, an anthology of short stories and pieces of flash fiction from authors around the world. 25 Servings of SOOP Volume I was described as a literary wine tasting of up-and-coming talent, and SOOP is confident that Volume II will follow in its footsteps. You can learn a little bit more about my specific short story below:

My career as a pianist started and ended with my first recital, in my first year of Piano, as a Sophomore in College. Much to my amazement, I brought amusement to the Student Body and the invited guests. I earned a standing ovation when a few believed they had just witnessed an exceptional well planned comedy act, and many others applauded foolish bravery, while most were genuinely celebrating one of the funniest public meltdowns they had ever witnessed in a long time – mine.
