Spring Short Story, Part Two
Greetings! Today I’m posting the second part of a short story I started in March. As I mentioned in the last post, I began this story as a way to accomplish two goals: 1.) I wanted to give myself a fun writing challenge (especially because I’m struggling with writing these days!); and 2.) I hoped …
