DOUBLE DARE includes:

THE SCARLET SPONGE - Wayne Allen Sallee's harrowing 10,000-word memoir of his 37 visible scars as well as those unseen from living with cerebral palsy and being the victim of a hit-and-run car accident.

THE BETTER MAN - David Bain and his wife have a tense encounter with an unstable visitor in a hospital.

ALAN STAGG'S LAST MINUTE by Wayne Allen Sallee - An early visit to Clarke's Diner in Chicago proves fatal to a writer at the Fullerton elevated platform.

BLACK CAB by David Bain - The barflies were sure the strange cabs supposedly kidnapping the citizens off the Chicago streets were just an urban legend - until the day Bennie hailed one.
Also featured are poems by both authors and an extensive interview section where Bain and Sallee discuss their influences, their writing techniques, and the changes they've seen in publishing over the years.
