The twelfth tale – The Bum Stories

The twelfth tale is up!

You hear a funny sound,
And then you look around.
‘Oh, no,’ you think
‘Not another mighty stink!’
But then as quickly as it came, it’s gone.
And your nose is left alone.

Ten minutes before the show even started I was barking like a dog under my breath while feigning innocence. The cast picked it up like it was scripted. My family and I were in stitches for the whole show. Theatrical brilliance!

Thank you, A.C. And I agree: Shelley, LeGuin, Tuchman, Schmidt, Atwood, Toews, Rice, Butler...the list is endless and nourishing to this writer's soul.

Anywhere from 5-15. I like reading for hours on end, but get distracted easily. Sometimes one captures my attention and I run with it, though. The longest-serving book on my stack I started reading 18 months ago (Distant Neighbours), the most recent just this morning (Country Lore and Legends).

Hope you enjoy it, Anders.

Thank you.
I'm in my greying years and like the stories, but the whole project was inspired by a group of Korean kindergartners to whom I read the second tale--A Tight Escape--my favourite read aloud moment.
