New Story and Poem of the Week

Brilliant choices Tony, I love both of these. Congrats to Tizzme and Gilbert, well deserved in both cases.

I utterly agree with both choices. Bravo to both! An excellent past time for a Friday afternoon. Hannah

i really enjoyed broccoli reasons ...

Oh Yes! Both do wonders with so few words.

A problem: You need to fix the green "Magazine" link at the top of the screen. http://www.abctales.com/magazine Accessing the story from the green "Home" link works okay for me, but the "Magazine" link gives me an old web page. I bet a lot of people aren't aware that this section is even being updated. Or is it just something with me and my browser cache?

Congratulations to the Glaswegian bard on his deserved accolade. No matter what identity you assume you are still the same skilled artist I know, mon ami.

Thanks you for the kind words, Luigi. I seem to have gone from someone who "has an idea that poetry is the kind of thing to house their observations and ideas but doesn't know the structures of poetry," to poem of the week within days. Such is life.

Gilbert, congratulations I like that poem by far the best from your set, it's most sharp. (I must ask incidentally, do your friends call you Gilbert the Grudge by any chance? Perhaps one day you may post on these boards without draaaggggging that up again.It was simply an observation, you are indeed tres sensitive.) Tony, thank you for the unexpected honour.
