Second Saturday Stories presents Bullet Drop: Part 2
The seconds of hang time between the bullet leaving the rifle and hitting its target carry an anticipatory eventuality. It’s one time, maybe the only time, that the mortality of a person can be measured. That feeling, that intimacy through such a vast expanse.

Your friendly neighbourhood columnist returns in the next Second Saturday Story
Enter 'Below Freezing,' an homage to those of us who keep the barbecue on the patio 365 days of the year. The story conjures images familiar to any Northerner who's ever clutched a Maglight in the crook of their neck so they can see what they're barbecuing in that familiar 4:00pm blackness known as dusk in winter.
