Parisianne plays BOLDLY with her new entry!

I believe in the mission of A Word With You Press – to put gravitas on a low carb diet. But when we speak of lost love, gravitas comes with the territory. Hold on! Not too worry! I’m sure Thorn will say something irreverently-adolescent-and-bordering-on-crass in 3… 2…

Parisianne Modert: Zero Degrees–a temperature or a measure of separation?

Literati, I asked for each writer to dig or dive beneath the surface. This piece reads like something spoken out loud in a coffee house in Greenwich Village in the 50’s, with smoke obscuring the reader, and fingers snapping in approval.

Parisianne does not take Pluto for planet again

Literati! Our contest submission deadline has passed, and by Saturday afternoon, if not sooner, I will have posted all the entries. I will then dedicate a page in which everyone who participated,either as a contestant or reader, can vote for their favorites.

In the meantime, here is chapter two from the faire Parisianne Modert.

Madam Parisianne Modert’s entry could be a stand-alone story, or a vignette ( “a small, graceful literary sketch” […]

Madame Parisianne Modert is Phonetically Challanged

Good day to you all from the towers that are A Word with You Press in beautiful sunny downtown Moscow.  Our friend and contributor Parisianne Modert has conjured the spirit of Lily Tomlin to help us make that call. I would love to call my own parents but I would have to call collect and […]

A Proposition: From one of our most astute commentators, Madame Modert

Good Evening, Literati, on this blustery fall day from the Towers that are A Word with You Press just a few short blocks from Friendship Square in Moscow. Parisianne Modert has proven to be as capable a critic as writer, and I am made well aware of the shallowness of my own thoughts simply be reading […]
