Our First Story Submitted by a Reader

I'm so pleased to post the story below, "We Were Talking About Her Daughter," submitted by Cassondra Ellis, a creative writing student and graduate of Columbus State University, Georgia. I hope you'll enjoy peering through the window she briefly and touchingly opens onto the life and conversation of a young, hard-working mother as much as I did. My warmest thanks to Cassondra for sharing her work with us! Just follow the link below to read and comment on her story; and contact me if you would like to submit a piece of "flash-non-fiction" of your own.--MD
