On Writing : Jail for a story unpublished by Jeff Lyons

Jail for a story unpublished

Six years in prison for a story not even published. Golrokh Ebrahimi wrote a story about how stoning works in Iran. Oops. At least they're sending her to the same prison holding her husband who is serving 19 years for some bogus crime against the state. But, it's kind of sweet the government decided to have them both in the same prison. Who said romance is dead? http://bit.ly/2dUK3GC
