By now, most of you have probably figured out that Horace is another version of me. This story takes place around the same time as "The Tempest," but now Fred has become Horace, The Frightened Little Fat Boy. This is the second story in my collection, "The Third Person Fictional Autobiography of Horace Singleman."
This was probably written around 1983, right after The Police released their album. I combined elements from my childhood with an incident that had just occurred in my present, and I was still stuck in my Salinger phase of writing, as you can tell in the phone conversation.
