Oracle Gretel (Unabridged‪)‬

What happens after the fairly tale ends?


Gretel's To-Do List:

Buy new dress for work party!
Get food for Hansel (avoid shrimp)
Reload MP3 player with happy music (Delete Joy Division!)


Gretel has lived for a very long time, and for most of that time, her life has sucked. This year is no exception. She's responsible for taking care of her brother (who happens to be an annoying cat now), she's hopelessly in love with her indifferent boss (the terrifyingly efficient and ruthless Ms. L. Thorne), and then there's that tendency to see the future, whether she wants to or not....


This short story is perfect for fans of Once Upon a Time, Neil Gaiman, and Kelly Link.
