I think I got someone's mail by mistake. Twice. |
|
Two manila envelopes, each containing a short story.
Or a two chapter novella.
One takes place in a distant land. So distant that I didn't recognize any part of the culture. I cried.
The other is about a man who dies. It was a slow death, no visitors, no nurses. I cried.
I wonder who sent them to me? And why?
:shrug:

Was it addressed to you, personally?
Strange indeed....
And no return address, I assume?
I have no idea why anyone would do such a thing, sweetie...:hug:

2. It was postmarked somewhere in Colorado. |

This thread is a pull your leg post, not quite a copycat.
Sorry.

3. You should probably just shred them |
|
I'm sure whoever sent them wouldn't want them to fall into the hands of - god forbid - a literary agent or something...
:rofl:

7. I think I'll scan them and post them. |
|
Surely someone will recognize them.
