Yes yes!
I like anthologies. I like collections of stories on one subject, or by one author, or with one defining theme. I'm funny that way.
ANYway...the No Stairway anthology is live and ready for your perusal. I'm sure some of you remember it. :) Now, i know that there was a bit of furor over the *idea* of this anthology, and while that's all well and good and yes, we can haz debate, plse... I don't want to do that *here*. Yes, i'm *in* this anthology. :)
I know there are good stories here, deserving of a read and worth your time. So enjoy!
No Stairway.
On a more personal note....we've had out-of-state, haven't-seen-in-years company since last tuesday and...well... Haven't had a lot of time to do some things, haven't felt like doing others. That's all about to change! Excellent visit, much fun, just... Being social is exhausting.
Plus, we've had two awesome thunderstorms, really cool, and the rain only came in a couple of windows so we could have *multiple* open windows during the storm. I love that. :)

Oh yes it's so true that being social is fun but exhausting. Visits are lovely and then... so sweet when they end. I can hardly believe it when I read Jane Austen's books and catch a reference to where she mentions a visit lasting a month or more. I guess travel was so difficult and expensive back then, you didn't go unless you were intending to settle down and *stay*. Yikes!

And yes! I'm exhausted. I think month-long visits were fine because people could just do whatever they did, and their wasn't the 'secret' vice of tv shows or computers to make you not want to sit and talk or whatever.
I remember reading in 'Gone With the Wind' people going to visit after getting married and staying until the second baby was born, hehe.
