An long-aspiring novelist finally has to meet his fiancée’s parents. Her eccentric (or possibly crazy) dad messes with his head.

This is a funny little story. It’s a little wacky at parts, but who’s to say there shouldn’t be a Spin City or, more to the point, a Meet The Parents of short stories? Not everything has to shoot for art, people. Sometimes, doing a small thing well is enough.
