  Some of the short stories here were part of my MFA thesis at San Francisco State University. They bring together rather eclectic storylines: a girl stuck in a vat in order to pay off her debts to society; a leader of a mercenary group who decides to start a focus group consultancy; and a few stories about men and relationships (those old workhorses of the imagination).  </message>
