Drowning yet dying of thirst

The Flag of Kiribati is my aesthetic favorite of all existing flags. That is the title of one of my short stories. Maybe someday I’ll have the balls to post it.

 

Screw it. I won't. I'm going to hide it under my bed again for 10 more years, just to help the handicappers put odds on ocean vs. land. Me? I always bet on ocean. No matter what tax payer-funded sand replenishment projects, dumb shore-scraping mansion owners, and the army corps of engineers say.

Boy, this sounds familiar.  I've debated about posting some creative stuff in my journal, but kept wavering over the decision.  And I still won't post anything I deem likely to be stolen and/or rewritten by someone else.  One solution I've used is to post excerpts; just a couple of paragraphs to pique interest.  Who knows, maybe a publisher will stop by!  ¤Holly
