WRITE a slice of life story.

GIVE comments to at least three other SOL stories.
Have you ever experienced this? The flow of words so fluent that to catch them all one has to stop and do nothing but write. For me, moments like this often come from triggers of memory, careful observations, or captured conversations. As the year begins to come to a close it is often a time to do each of these and story is a perfect way to preserve such moments.
