Story Behind The Book

Remote Control is based on a short story of the same name that I wrote back in 1987. I wrote it as part of an assignment for a Journalism and Short Story Writing course I was taking at the time. The lesson was about incorporating IRONY into your writing. Remote Control is the ultimate irony. "Be careful what you wish for!"
