Abaculus 2007 coverDo you get an itch you can't scratch? No, not that kind of itch!

You know how it is. You get an itching, tickling sensation, somewhere in the middle of your back, and you can't quite reach to just the right place.

Itch has been published by Leucrota Press in the Abaculus 2007 anthology, still available from Amazon.
