Lisa Kataykov: Ruby was Angry: A Short Story

Original: Link



I'm working on a series of short fiction stories/vignettes that explore real human issues through my dog Ruby, which I'm hoping will be fodder for my next book. I thought I'd share one with you guys before my two weeks as a Boinger are over. I actually wrote this one at San Francisco airport while waiting for a plane to Tokyo—Ruby was really barking like a maniac at a sleeping guy, and my imagination took it from there. Here goes:
Ruby Was Angry

Ruby was angry. She didn’t really understand why—but as she stared at the man sprawled out on the Great Wall. (The last fashion photography I saw at this location was by Tyra Banks for ANTM . Not quite as stunning.)
