Dear friends — a while back (a few years ago), I launched a madly ambitious plan to post a new little story every week. I burned out. I liked the idea though, so I’m going to try to post a new little story once a month, on the last Sunday of every month. Well, I did one for yesterday, but couldn’t access my account. So here it is as a screenshot of very messy writing. There’s a bottom line that you can’t see because I decided I didn’t like it. It’s a true story. Enjoy.
Story Time Sunday returns — Ajar
