I'm trying to remember who wrote these short stories.

I think they were in Ray Bradbury books of short stories but I'm not sure. I was a teen when I read them and I'm almost sure he was the author.

One was about a man that gets off a train intending to murder a complete stranger just to see how it feels. Then he meets another man at the station who has the same plan and is considering him as his victim.

The other is a story about a women who drives along a certain route and becomes younger and more adventurous as she drives.

I thought they might be in The Illustrated Man but couldnt find a reference to them.

I have a few others I have been trying to find for a long time but will start with these two.

Hope someone can help. Thanks.

Lea

the "woman getting younger" story sounds like "mrs. Todd's shortcut" by stephen King
