Andrea Dale, <strong>From Bitter to Sweet</strong> (Soul's Road Press, 2011)Prolific short story author Dale turns in the kind of Kindle quickie that stands in mute condemnation of so much of the cheap smut that's out there waiting to be downloaded for a buck or less, both in the quality of the writing and in the genuine emotion that makes this short-short (just about two pages) more erotic than 99% of the kindle porn available. I can think of half a hundred authors off the top of my head whose faces I want to shove printouts of this in while saying "READ! LEARN!". It's the simplest of stories, a rebound relationship, but it is simple and genuine and written with an ear towards the sensuous, something most Kindle-porn merchants have forgotten they ever had, if they ever did. Now, I'm telling you, writer or not: read. learn. ****
