Read Open Wide Storyline:

Since graduating from high school, Kurt's life has been one unmitigated disaster after another. But just as he's about to hit rock bottom, circumstances take a bizarre turn. He runs into Dean, an old buddy-turned-bitter enemy, at a soup kitchen. Dean has married Kurt's old high school flame. But rather than reopening old wounds, it's an opportunity for them to reconcile. But is Dean's offer of a helping hand a blessing or a curse? As old passions are reignited, will ancient wrongs be righted? Will their reunion give new meaning to the adage "An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth"?
"Open Wide" is a title from the horror collection SHORTING THE UNDEAD AND OTHER HORRORS: A MENAGERIE OF MACABRE MINI-FICTION.
Not recommended for readers under 16.

**About the Author
eFiction magazine calls Saul an author armed with "a PhD and a whacked out sense of humor."
Saul spent his formative years in a leaky century-old house overlooking the Erie Canal in Upstate New York. His bedroom was a refurbished attic, which he shared with all manner of creatures, not all, he is convinced, flesh and blood.
After bouncing around the US and Europe for several years, he settled down to pursue a career in the sciences, opting to study the mysteries of human molecular genetics. But even positions as an experimental biologist, teacher, manager and biotech entrepreneur couldn't keep him from his true passion as a storyteller.
He now writes speculative fiction full time from his home in the San Francisco Bay Area. Although his house is now attic-less and waterproof, he continues to be haunted by a variety of creatures, including a wife, kids, four dogs, three cats, six chickens, a wayward rooster, and one very grumpy possum. They are all flesh and blood.
Except, maybe, for the possum, which he's convinced is the reincarnated spirit of Jack Torrance.
