my favorite is the story that i rewrote from ... um ... the author of demonology 101, whose name i will remember tomorow. um. faith erin hicks! that is it.
but -- it is this story, where the "ghost" (he isn't, technically, but close enough) goes to visit his own grave, and the excitable descendant of his love tells him the story of his own mysterious disappearance. and he's like "yes. I know the ending already" and she's like "... my friends put you up to this, didn't they? HAH! come to the pub." and it's beautiful.
also, the story I reread just recently, whose author I cannot recall. but it is about a ghost whose whole family poisoned themselves before dystopia set in on their future world, and she lives on the top floor of a ghost building, which is where this one crane in the dystopian future works, and the crane operator falls in love with her and the books she tells him about (although she is quite serious about it. "I miss new books, I've read all the ones here.") and kills himself with chocolate and books to be with her forever. And it's not at all sad, just creepy and beautiful.
i am sorry if this is incoherent, I will delete/fix in the morning. it is just late, and i am incoherent at this hour.
