Short Story Month (August Wolf)

This short story is actually based on a true story. Yes, really!

It is not a biography nor is it considered a historical account.

August Wolf was a real person and he reportedly worked in the lab with the atomic bomb — that was a real thing.

Him being left on the side of the road for dead was true enough.

But the rest – the names and places have been changed to protect the guilty.

I dropped the e in Wolf like that would somehow protect me from his “handlers”.

I named the character Jason Carroll, after my parents, combining their names, but they had nothing to do with the story. I’m not sure I ever told them about the real character I knew named August Wolf.

That’s a little backstory on August Wolf.

No go grab a book or a pen or a keypad and enjoy yourself.

What do ya think about that?
