Hennessy New Irish Writing: Some Random Story

Begin? Make a start. Where? OK. She needed randomness for her work, an artwork. She said she wanted something to happen at random, and asked could it be done.

I told her the best I could achieve for the money on offer, which was zero, was pseudorandom.
