Tell Them I Died
by Sarah Gordon Weathersby

Let’s say you’re a people person. You like helping people, taking them soup when they’re sick, inviting their college children for dinner, solving their computer problems, supporting them in their business efforts. Then one day you realize you’re always on the answering end of the phone, and you have no life of your own. So you say to yourself, "I need to get away, and tell nobody where I am." This is what happened to A1QTEE, owner/operator of the social networking site, Blaq-kawfee.com except she left a message, "Tell them I died." Tell Them I Died is a romantic adventure that centers on the loves and lives of Angela and "Bodine" Beaudoin and their friends on the social networking site, Blaq-Kawfee.com. Angela and Bodine are retired and live in Raleigh, North Carolina. Every day they interact with friends all over the world on Blaq-Kawfee.com until Angela receives a phone call from Carlton telling her that his mother, A1QTEE, the owner/operator of Blaq-Kawfee died a month ago. Instantly, Angela smells foul play and finds herself working overtime, much to the chagrin of Bodine, to figure out what happened to her dear friend.
