Just finished the Tor.com short, "Eros, Philia, Agape":

Beautiful, fragile, haunting. Despite the "eros" in the title, there's no overt eroticism.

I'm working my way through "Harald," from the Baen Free Library, and marveling at the lack of what I'd consider key words, like "the." David D. Friedman's writing is oddly truncated, as if a writing coach gone berserk had gotten hold of the manuscript. And yet, I'm going to finish it.
