Reading is a favorite pastime of mine. I imagine it is for most writers.

One of the things I like the most about reading is passing on a good story for others to enjoy. Doing so, not only promotes the author’s work but provides you with something new to read.

First up, in no particular order, is  Wednesdays, A Story, By Kay Eldredge, Narrative Magazine’s Fall Contest Winner.

Second, from Carve Magazine, Possession, by Adrienne Celt.

Third, Used Books, By Von Rupert.You can find his story at Every Day Fiction.

Last but not least, from Wow’s Summer 2015 Flash Fiction Contest – Runner-up, The Tales We Spin by Courtney Essary Messenbaugh.

I hope you will enjoy these stories as much as I did. Happy reading.

Time to ShareWelcome to another, Stories to Share. Reading is an important part of being a writer and so is recognizing a great story when you read it.

Sometimes, I can’t put my finger on why a story touches me, but when it does it’s time to share it.

Up first – “The Greatest of Ease” by  Sarah Angleton. The 3rd place Winner in Women on Writing (WOW’s) 2015 Summer Flash Fiction Contest.

Next, is “A Sliver of Ivory“ by Vanessa Lafaye from  Books by Women.

And last but not least, from the Smokelong Quarterly,  “A Question of Balance”  by Margot Taylor.

Please take a moment to read these stories, comment, and pass them on for others to enjoy. Not only are we reading stories that move us but we’re supporting writers. Who knows, the next story to share may be yours.
