 | Fireflies In A Mason Jar | Sideman | Short Story | Other | 7 | 0.46 | Jul 25, 2008 |
Summary:I wrote this a number of years ago. My wife is from Bakersfield, Califirnia where fireflies are only a rumor or a myth. When I drug her to St. Louis, she was in awe of the "lightning bugs". I started telling her about my childhood experiences with those little fly by night critters. That evening I sat down an wrote this. That was in late 1997.
I wasn't sure if this should be regarded as a memoir or not, so I put it in the "other" genre. Any thoughts about that?
I am posting this with the hope that you might enjoy it and offer any comments about ways to make it more engaging or flow more smoothly. I want it to be a casual read that leaves the reader with slight smile or a warm feeling. I am not an educated writer. I am open to any and all comments and suggestions. Thanks!Chapters: |

Summary:This was written as I pondered the magnitude of my situation. My husband and I are both in our 60's, and got married in August, 2005; he after 30 years divorced, myself after 15 years. We met on-line; it was love at first e-mail, and was a long distance courtship, of sorts! He had just had surgery for cancer; I was a full-time missionary in D.C.The wedding was the wedding of my dreams! But, because of his health situation(there is no cancer!), things are moving a lot more slowly than I would like! We still can't be very active, but hope to travel a lot...whenever!!! This is the first time I have done this; your feedback is truly welcome!Chapters: |
