Breece D’J Pancake died when he was 26. He was from West Virginia, and I would label his writing “grit-lit”. This story was almost too gritty for me. He’s the kind of writer that other writers love. His short story collection has a blurb from Joyce Carol Oates.
Mark Twain opens this short story with an unnamed narrator seeking out Simon Wheeler to ask about a Leonidas Smiley. Wheeler ends up telling a story about Jim Smiley, who loved gambling over everything, even training animals to act as he wished so he could win the bets he placed before people.

User stories are a few sentences in simple language that outline the desired outcome. They don't go into detail. Requirements are added later, once agreed upon by the team.
It's tempting to think that user stories are, simply put, software system requirements. But they're not. The wonderful thing about short stories is that you can typically finish them in one sitting. And, with many of them available online, you can enjoy one even on your lunch break or while waiting for dinner to come out of the oven.But The king knew that suddenly proclaiming that coitus is to be encouraged will earn him suspicion, distrust, and hostility from his people, therefore he decided to gradually introduce the idea.
Curious and intrigued, the Village Chief, along with Captain, went to the Chief’s house to investigate the remarkable phenomenon. A strong odor greeted them when they arrived. The chieftain nervously asked the captain if the odor was the smell of blood. Receiving silence, he turned to the captain, finding her blushing and sweating.

He asked the assistance of the Royal Apothecary to create a medicine to end all illness. With the support of the king, The Royal Apothecary succeeded in finding such medicine. The Panacea can cure any diseases, but it must be given time to eradicate the source of the virus since Panacea must “learn” to eliminate the disease. The medicinal wonder also had an unusual side effect; while not affecting the longevity of the drinker, it causes the body to stop aging around the age of forty, making an eighty-year-old still beautiful.
