NEW STORY: "The First Thing I Give Her," by Bill Cheng
Today we have a new story by Bill Cheng about couples, marriage, divorce, pain that changes people, and mail-order brides.



What makes a story like this work? Is it the constant edge of low-level despair? Or is it the high-points, the gags, the little wounds that blink open like eyes?

It's hard to say. Ask yourself while reading this: is Paxton a good man, or a bad man? How could he be better? How could he be worse?
