Linda is really nothing serious, more just practice and for fun than anything else. I have a vague idea of where the story leads to later on, but really I'm just writing at my own pace.It's a story about Devan, a deliveryman working for a service geared for anonymity (leading to many less than pleasant customers.) who eventually meets a girl named Belinda (who goes by the name of Linda.) as a client. She seems normal enough, despite the fact she's a client of the notorious service he works for, and her refusal to allow visitors in her apartment. Linda is a regular customer of the service as a means to get groceries, and on his first day, Devan actually engaged her in conversation instead of just leaving the bags by the door.The next week, Linda orders the delivery expressly requesting Devan. After the second delivery, Linda gives Devan her phone number (to which Devan gives her his.) and they soon enter a routine of calling each other and talking in person weekly after her delivery, which is always Devan's last delivery of the night. Little known to Devan, Linda is actually a lamia!Read the butchered, half complete first draft of the first short story here: http://docs.google.com/View?id=dfxzbxwp_0dws4b53b
