It’s week 4 of my series of short stories. This week is a little different in that it’s part one of a longer story, which I’ll complete for you next week. It does come to somewhat of a conclusion on its own, but stay tuned for, in the words of the late great Paul Harvey, […]
In week three of, I think, four weeks of sharing short stories, I am sharing something a little different. This is really brief and it’s an entire story made up of a series of questions and answers, one leading to the next. It’s a response to a writing prompt I found online. I really enjoyed […]
