Heart Talk

by Rebecca M. Senese

Recovering from a heart transplant, Casey readies herself to return to work. But her new heart has other ideas…

After a heart transplant, Casey readies herself for her first day back at work. New suit, check. Herbal tea, check. Egg white omelette, check. Then a voice in her head suggests some salsa with that omelette, something to make it less bland. Why not?

And when she gets to work, that same voice recommends covering her office’s the empty white board with a drawing of a landscape.

Where is that voice coming from? What will it ask of her next?

Join Casey as she tries to figure it out in this contemporary fantasy, Heart Talk.
