Just a little rainy day flash fiction drizzle!
Mini Flash Fiction: The Undoing
"If you could take it all back, would you?"
Just a Quick Update: Summer’s Almost Here!
Wooooooooo. I had no idea that it'd actually be more exhausting to have a kid in school than not. Between school trips, special days, holidays, field days, I'm worn out! BUT.

Two stood out to me: "Someone's Dragon is Double-Parked Outside" and "I Shouldn't Have Swiped Right." If I had done the Swipe one, it was going to be a Vampire story, but since the previous one...

Flash Poetry: “Flow”
I am a person of Planned dates And confirmed appointments "It'll happen when it happens" Does not compute. "Go with the flow" Only works When the flow is predetermined Which I'm pretty sure Isn't how that works.
