Out of the Loop

I will be out of the loop (or should I say the blogosphere?) for a while. I'll return by mid-fall.

Enjoy the rest of the summer!

Challenge Yourself and Others

Instead of leaving a comment, please leave a sentence or two (or more if you’d like) to continue the story below. I’ll publish your sentences in the order received so the next blogger can add to the developing story. You have carte blanche in regards to characters, plot, dialogue, etc. Let’s see what comes out of it and let the writing fun begin!
