Welcome to my new series, a weekly blog on what’s inspiring me. I spent much of last week in bed with a stomach bug. I’ll spare you the details of that—but in addition to the grotesque physical symptoms, I had some fever dreams I won’t soon forget. Imagine my surprise to see Vocal’s newest challenge: Write a fiction story about a recurring dream or nightmare.

Good one Babs! ❤️❤️ I don’t want to count the months down - I was just saying the longer days are RUSHING to the summer solstice when the days then get shorter. 🤔
