Author Michael Pollick was commissioned by a gourmet coffee microroaster in Portland, Oregon to create microshort essays for their coffee can labels and newsletters. The instructions were straightforward: Keep them under 400 words, keep them family-friendly, and mention the word "coffee" at least once. He almost succeeded.
The essays never made the outside of a coffee label, but they did find the inside of a desk drawer for 10 years. Here they are for your reading pleasure, the RECOVERED Story House coffee essays. Enjoy a dead hotdog walking with Keef Richards. Go bottomless with Lawrence Welk and the Hotsy Totsy Boys. Discover gateway candies like Ice Cubes and Coffee Nips. Raise a mug to the Godfather of horrible coffee, Detective Nick Yemana. Fire up the coffeepot and enjoy these microshort stories while you sip.
