Two insect stories today.
"Bees" is of historical interest to me since it was my first "official" flash fiction. Celeste, the preeminent sex story critique of the newsgroup alt.sex.stories (circa 2000) hosted a flash fiction contest-500 words and no more-and of the hundred or so entries, mine came in first.
In looking over my ladybug story, I thought I'd check out Shaker furniture. For whatever reason Yahoo was my computer's default search engine. And for whatever reason it's somewhat slow to get results in image search. I switched to Google. The results were quick but annoying: the first five pages were all ads. Maybe there's a way to turn off Google ads in search results, but I suspect not.
