Story, Poem and Inspiration Point of the Week

It's always a huge pleasure to read what's been posted on ABCTales - not just the pieces which are so fantastic that they blow you away, but also the works in progress, the long-running series with their own loyal followers, the diary entries - I could go on...

Huge congratulations this week to 60units for The Gunshow Loophole which he says is the first thing he's ever posted anywhere for criticism. It's a slick, accomplished three parter (so far), gritty and authentic, lifted by dry humour.

Poem of the Week goes to Esmerelda who makes a very welcome return with Spoiler - as Bee says, an "anti-fairy tale". It's a must read!

The Inspiration point for this week is a challenge: write something including three different fruits. Good luck - I look forward to seeing what you produce! (did you see what I did there?)
