Author has written 59 stories for Life, Love, General, Family, Friendship, Haiku, Nature, and Historical.

So, summer this year has been different.

I recently realized that my friendship with a certain group of people has been going on for a year too long. Too different, I guess. I've stopped having fun with them. Anyway, I've known them since the sixth grade, so this is kind of startling. But, I'm getting over it. One problem: I'm shy.

Trying to overcome this is tough, but I'm getting there. And, in the meantime, I have lots of things to write about. :-)

I hope ya'll are all okay, no matter where you are (on the map, in life, whatever). Have a great day!
