DOUBLE TROUBLE

Ghost of Mark Twain here:


I told Roland, “Never be haughty to the humble, never be humble to the haughty.”

Seems the boy is reluctant to tell all you friends of his out there that there is DOUBLE TROUBLE on the way.

But humility and me have never been traveling companions, so I will tell you for him:


SECOND AVENUE SECOND HAND SHOP Anthology has accepted his short story, PICTURE IMPERFECT!

 
ROSE RED suggests you read her story.  I'd listen to her if I were you.  She is one gal that gives me the bejeebers.


OPEN DOORS 2 Anthology has also accepted a short story of Roland's: THREE GOLDILOCKS AND A BEAR.  And if you're a long time friend of Roland's, you know who the bear is. 

 Clue: he has two shadows.

The three Goldilocks?  Brrr.  It would plum scare me to put their identity into words.
