Today we cover both W and X, and I offer proof-positive of the lengths to which I will go to avoid using ‘xmas’ as a word. Chemistry puns… whee! Happy Christmas Eve Eve! Xe and We: A Love Story There’s nothing like a winter walk. Wading through snow, trail of footprints behind. And theContinue reading “Festive Flash Fiction Day 23: Xe and We — A Love Story”
