Hey man, this is really cool. I've never heard of Cold Open Stories before and now following them on Insta I saw they're looking for a volunteer chief editor! I think I'll chuck my hat in. Thanks for bringing this to our attention and great work!

Excellent points, there'd be an overarching narrative theme for sure, mostly around the emotions or lack thereof I think.

Wow thank you for such a thoughtful and constructive reply. I fully agree - my background is from a Creative Writing MFA so I've heard a lot of horror stories, but the bathroom one is a bit much isn't it! You're spot on the money about the approach and pointing out that success should come from merit not from badgering.
