To those of you reading Red Tape, I did a re-write of chapter 27.  It drops a piece of the puzzle and gives us more of Chayton's back story.  The section added is at the end of first scene in the chapter.

Chapter 40 of Red Tape is live.  
          
          Alyana and Chayton are back home and find her investagations team has been busy.

Greetings, Ma'am Karen!
          How are you?
          It's been a while since our last conversation, hasn't it?
          I wonder if you are still interested in joining me with my original QOTD Halloween edition and some fun books in my profile? 
          
          If yes,
          You can just come by and read which one you like most and TBH I miss talking with you and having a chit chat in the comment section, 
          Hopefully you're well and amazing Ma'am.
          
          Besides, it's Halloween ✨
          Trick or Treat?
          Thank you, Ma'am...
          Happy October Eve! 

Chapter 56 of Yesterday is live.  There is one more to go.  Sorry for draggin my heels on this book, but I'm reluctant to say goodbye to this part of Gaia's story.  She is a fascinating woman and her early life was a serious adventure.

I have decided to enter  the Shortys 2025 contest.  My first piece of flash fiction, a mere 582 words is compiled and on line.   I'm hoping to have some poetry, and perhaps a longer short story to add to this single piece now.  
          Inspiriation this time was a list of spelling test words.
