Welcome to the Daily Cabal, Day One
by Rudi Dornemann
To start things off here at the Daily Cabal, we’re offering one piece of fiction from each of our cabal members.
Just scroll down the main page to see them all, and come back for a new story tomorrow and every Monday through Friday, from now until the end of time or the successful completion of our plan to become the secret rulers of the world, whichever comes first.
Told to Me by a Woman in the Air India Lounge at London Heathrow
by Kat Beyer
I once loved a man who changed into a tiger by day. It didn’t work out. Among other things… well, there is no way to put it delicately… Tigers, you may know, get quite a bit of carrion caught in the sheaths of their claws, and even as a man he could never quite rid his nails of the stink of sambhur-flesh. But I shall always remember the way the moon, shining through the lattice, made stripes across his back as he crept over the bed.
