My full name ends with II, thus the deuce. Age and health preclude employment. Divorced, her wish, after 36 years. I found I was making many suggestions to authors as I commented on their work. I realized that none of them paid much, if any, attention to my suggestions. I decided to see if I could write a well as make suggestions.
Just Plain Bob put out his second Invitional Challenge and I decided to give it try.
In the process, a different, shorter story, popped, complete into my head. that became my first story to post -"Best Birthday Ever".
