The Right Call – An Original Short Story by Don McDonald
A New Tales Told Original Fiction Sample
This is a special presentation of my original short story, “The Right Call,” first released on my companion podcast, New Tales Told.
For now, I’ll be sharing my new stories here on Litreading as well—so you can hear them easily, without having to go looking.
Litreading will always remain a home for classic short fiction. These are simply new stories, told in the same spirit.
The Right Call is a work of fiction, loosely inspired by a real turning point in my own life.
The events, characters, station, and circumstances have been changed. What remains is the emotional truth of a moment many people recognize: standing at a crossroads between what looks sensible and what feels right.
This story isn’t about radio.
It’s about listening—to others, and to yourself—when the script stops working.
