During this unusual and contentious political season, let us pause this holiday weekend and give thanks for those men and women (past and present) who have sacrificed and made it possible for us to enjoy the very freedoms we so often take for granted.
I’d love to hear your comments. Talk to me. Tell me your story and look for me on Facebook at SheilaMGood, Pinterest, Bloglovin, Twitter@sheilamgood, Contently, and Instagram.
Once again, I like to share with you some of my favorite short stories. I hope you will like them as much as I did and, if so, pass them on for others to enjoy.
A couple of these are winners in the WOW – Women on Writing Winter 2016 Contest.
1st place goes to Solange Hommel for her story, When You Wake Up.
2nd Place goes to Sara Codair for The Cell.
From No Extra Words Podcast, Episode 38 by Phillip Sterling – Improvisation.
Fiction Southeast brings us, Dead Man Dressing by Robert Grindy.
And, from Your Story Club, The Good Neighbor by Dan Leo.
Kick up your feet and enjoy a little summer time reading this holiday weekend and send the authors some appreciation.

Shelby glanced at her fiancé. “You seriously didn’t just tell me what I could discuss with your parents.”
“No… well, sorta … I mean… it’s the first time meeting them. I don’t want any waves.”
“So, you expect me to play dumb?”
“No-o-o, forget I said anything.”
“I’ll use my best Southern manners. Your parents will love me.”
He smiled weakly and knocked.
She whispered, “Like my button?” I’m a proud gun-toting Member of NRA.
“Holy shit!” He grabbed her coat. His mom opened the door.
