The Pixie Purse

The Pixie Purse is a story about a guy who finds a tiny little purse on the floor of his bedroom, and doesn't know how it got there.

I came up with idea when I found a little doll purse on our bedroom floor. Maria suggested that I write a story about it and keep the story with the purse for our kids to find years from now. This is the product of that idea.

Update: On Friday, January 22, 2010, Short-Story.Me accepted Pixie Purse for publication! They said it will be published in about 4 weeks.
