You've had a busy week on the blog! I need to go back and read your posts. I love short stories though I rarely read them. I may have to become a honorary member of the group. 🙂 I hope you have a good time with family.

I like short stories too but I almost forget they exist for some reason. I'm hoping that the FB group will remind me to tackle them!
