589

By Marty Helton

Murray has been a garbage man for twelve years and a YouTuber for almost as long. The garbage pays better. His channel has twenty-three subscribers, three of whom are his cats - Like, Comment, and Subscribe - named after the things he couldn't get.

Then he finds a handwritten flyer at the laundromat: Tired of your life? Wish it were different? I can help. Reasonable rates.

The address leads him to Christianna Vyce, who is very old, very sick, and very much not what Murray expected. She grants his wish. He pays in soup. And something in the world shifts.

589 is a novella about wanting to matter and the trouble with getting what you ask for.
