Story and Poem of the Week and Inspiration Point

Great to see that even with the easing of lockdown and the various sporting distractions going on, ABC Talers have still managed to find the time to post some brilliant work.

Story of the Week is 'First Last Friday' by ice rivers. Like many of the best stories, it's deceptively simple. It's one of those pieces where nothing and everything happen at the same time. The ending might be heartbreaking, or it might be the start of something else. Please do give it a read, if you haven't already: First Last Friday | ABCtales

Poem of the Week is 'The Afterlife of Spiders' by Angusfolklore. One commenter described this as 'very weird but also very beautiful', and I can't better that. Being a confirmed arachnophobe, I approached it with great caution, but was soon caught up in its web of magic: The Afterlife of Spiders | ABCtales

Hope everyone has a good week!
