Not having written for some time I thought I would use Aesop's Fables, which are Public Domain and in many different "Translation" adaptations. For me, though they are short and quick to read, there's very little meat on their bones. Therefore, I have decided to try and fatten them up a little and make them more palatable and enjoyable for the reading masses, while keeping them short and sweet. I hope you enjoy these retellings as I stretch me story-telling skills to see if I still possess them.All Rights Reserved
