hearty story

Posted on 08 February 2010

My blog’s date is in the military (and faraway places) style, with the day preceding the month. I’ve tried to make it regular American, to no avail. But as Tim says, I should prefer it; it’s logical that way.

Tim was in the Navy long ago, when we were first married. I’ve written another online-accepted piece, this one inspired by events during our first married year, in a land not-so-far away but that might as well have been the moon, with two creatures alien to one another trying to navigate its craters.

You can read the tale here, at Long Story Short, where apparently it fits their Valentine sensibilities.

    Congratulations on the published piece.
    It was so good , I wanted it to go on…
    Marriage is a foreign country.

    Thanks, Deb, for reading. Foreign country is an apt term, indeed, and the journey can be very enriching.

    You may finish Tell It Slant before I do, as my things to read are piling again…we all know how that goes. :o)

    Jodi, that’s encouraging, since the story goes on in my memoir…Thanks.
