What do you make wishes on? My list holds the traditional things: birthday cake candles, shooting stars, ladybugs, four leaf clover.

Some of my German-speaking, but English-loving friends have been following our stories here and have been inspired by our stories. They would like also to write stories, but their English is not good enough that they feel comfortable to write in English. So, I am opening up this blog to story writers of any language.

Hello world! – Lia
The idea for Short Short Stories stems from my son. He said that he thought sunnysara and I should write a collection of stories out of our day-to-day experiences. The stories will be about people we know, situations we’ve observed, and opinions we temporarily hold.
