The Roommate Situation (37 page)

Zoe X. Rider

Zoe X. Rider spent her malleable late-teen/early-twenties years never very far from a pool table—billiard halls, rec rooms, dorm common rooms, barracks. At one point, she lived upstairs from a pool hall, which is pretty much what she imagines being in heaven is like. She has a pool table in her living room these days, which is
almost
as good. When she’s not practicing rail shots, she writes fiction, sees her favorite bands at small dark venues, and loses herself in other people’s books.
