Story and Poem of the Week and Inspiration Point

The sun has just come out from behind the grey clouds for the first time in what feels like months but is probably only a week, so that’s number one on my Reasons to be Cheerful list for today. Coming in at a very close second has been the pleasure of reading through everything that’s been posted on ABCTales this week. A very big thank you to all of you who’ve contributed, not only with your writing, but with the constructive comments you’ve been generous enough to take the time to leave.

 

What a week it’s been for prose! I’ll only mention a few or I’d be here all day, but do make sure you read celticman’s Steelie and hudsonmoon’s Goosestepping Down Main Street, also the first part of something very promising by joekhulman: Testimonium Regis
