(I still keep my blogging and Tweeting a secret from everyone in my offline life.)<br /> Anyway, I really liked your story, Crystal! The details were really good, and I especially liked that line about the pastries; that made me laugh! I also liked that line about the summer of 67.

I lived quite close to the hospital, so that could explain it, right? Second guessing myself.<br /><br />A love story? Does it go back in time a bit? Or is a ghost love story? Or maybe someone she's left behind finds love. Great start to the story. Who wouldn't want to read on?Shannon Lawrencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00934641808195675935noreply@blogger.com
