✦ Synopsis

In For a Penny was written in response to a late-1990s invitation from the BBC. Could I provide a noirish story to be read over the radio? I could and did, and EQMM published it after it had gone out over the airwaves, and I subsequently collected it in Enough Rope.

I dont know that it was written any differently because it was intended for performance. Much more recently, I wrote Dollys Trash & Treasures for an audiobook anthology, and deliberately limited the text to dialogue and internal monologue. With In For a Penny, I was less concerned with style than substance, and my attention was centered on the embattled protagonist, just trying to get through the days. And nights.
