Rushing Thru the Dark features one-act plays and short screenplays, poetry, and art. This issue brings humor in the form of a fun math problem and Krampus in A Night Alone in Santa Fe ; in an imagined letter in, Dear Jeff Bezos ; in a conversation between 2 males-with one clearly dominated by a narcissistic sociopath in Best Friends; from moments in a psychological solution to mother-in-law issues starring ancient Greek gods in Malneirophrenia ; through an amusing look at how American family dynamics have changed over the last 60 years in All Under One Sky ; from a comedic exploration into the importance of names in Lost ; and in a screenplay's modern, if somewhat horrific, take on Chaucer's "Pardoner's Tale" in The Riot Makers . More serious issues are also addressed, from a man's tense recounting of a moment of terror that made him remember his father in Conflagration , to a woman's right to say no to motherhood (and not in the way you are thinking) in Choice . For an added treat is Ruth's screenplay, Mrs. Nash, dramatizing the life choices of the first historically documented EuroAmerican male who lived his life as a female in America.
