Well, it took a few weeks, all told, but we’ve finally reached the conclusion to The Stars That Sing, and I’m excited to hear what you all think. If you want to re-read previous chapters (or arrived at this page without having done so), you can start over with Chapters 1 and 2 here,…

The Stars That Sing: Ch. 5-6
After much thought and a lack of outright rejection from the peanut gallery, I’ve opted to dub these weekly posts, #TwoChaptersTuesday. Hopefully, the hashtag is self-explanatory. (Why I’m using a hashtag on a website, on the other hand, might be less so.) Anyway, now that we’ve met our main characters, it’s time…

With Thanksgiving behind us, it can only mean one thing: weeks and weeks of eating all varieties of pie. Lovely, wonderful, oh-so-tasty pie.
