We love your stories, @riverflows!

Yours was wonderful too, @grindan!

Nicely done, @wrestlingdesires!

Great! We hope you'll join us, @treasuree.

Thanks for writing for the monthly contest, @seki1!

Oh my, I love this story! It builds and builds and you do such a nice job with the story arc. I'm not sure if it's intuition, or some mind-body separation thing that happens when she encounters the man

He's really rather cute! That poor gecko. It looks so resigned. Like, "Okay fine. You've got the big jaws. You win."

Heading off to power up now. Glad your ankle is healing up, @fionasfavourites! (I feel your pain! I broke my foot a few weeks ago!) I hope your gig work picks up!

That does look like fun, @papilloncharity! But also hazardous! I’m with you — maybe back in the day, if these had been invented. Now I’ll just enjoy being a bystander! Here in Minnesota the lakes freeze

Done, @arcange!

Isn't that nuts? Hope you had a great Halloween, @dswigle. Yeah, I can't imagine how you kept on top of running Market Friday while in recovery!

Ha ha. That's Baby Yoda!

Happy Birthday, @lex-zaiya!

Thanks very much, @coquicoin. Geez, I somehow missed some comments on this post. (The last few weeks have been a little crazy!)
