“No Smoking on These Premises” at Lowlife Lit Press

April 8, 2025 by Cliff Aliperti

I’m back at Lowlife Lit Press with “No Smoking on These Premises,” a quicker (cleaner) read than my previous story over there, “Spin Cycle.”

I am thrilled to see this new lit site continues to be busy, updating with new stories, poems, and more, multiple times per day throughout the week. It’s also exciting to have a place to send some of my rougher and more blue collar-type stories, and on that note I’ll have a third piece appearing with them very soon.

“No Smoking on These Premises” is pretty clean, safe for work I’d imagine, despite a little language and, obviously, some cigarette smoking.

Here’s how it starts, if you’re looking for a little teaser before you head over:
