Wonder if I've just been lucky in my selections...<br /><br />Margot - At three pages, the reread won't take long. It's quite a story!<br /><br />Amy - I didn't know you liked short stories! I hadn't read any since high school and then 'rediscovered' them just over a year ago. John does a post every Monday and invites anyone to leave a link.

My heart hurts a little fo this poor woman. I will read The Confession for sure and thank you for bringing it to my attention. <br />I adore short stories but have difficulty finding people who read them. I'm going to stob by John's blog and then I'm going to get back into reading some short stories.<br /><br />~ AmyAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09866342436745173619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7080965436653289398.post-64919613957408950422010-08-09T12:27:15.136-04:002010-08-09T12:27:15.136-04:00I believe I've read this story before as it is...I believe I've read this story before as it is vaguely familiar.
