The Couple at the Second Table
by Layla
A bar forty feet from her door, a third of a glass, an hour with nothing owed to anyone. It's the best part of her week. Then a champagne bottle turns up at a table that only ever orders a pint: a couple, good coats, a marriage she'll never know. So she does what she's best at — takes what the room hands her and invents the rest: how they met, what he isn't saying, the way tonight ends, a whole decade built from a bottle and two good coats — until the floor drops and the invented body becomes her own. A contemporary, female-gaze story about the erotic daydreaming women do and almost never say out loud — for readers who want to be read back to themselves, unhurried and unashamed.

In Plain Sight
Sable
In Plain Sight
Married, competent, unseen. She has one hour a day that's hers — the dog walk, past the same stranger who looks at her like there's something worth looking at. It should be nothing. It's becoming the only thing. And a woman who's remembered what being seen feels like can't unremember it.

Jennifer Catching Up: Season One
June K.
Jennifer Catching Up
Jennifer just dropped her last kid off at college — and came home to a marriage she suddenly doesn't recognize. Convinced she can fix whatever's missing with the same competence that runs the rest of her life, she throws herself at the problem with a plan, a spreadsheet, and absolutely no idea what she's actually looking for. A warm, wickedly funny dramedy about the projects we build to avoid the questions we can't answer.
