A rather light month in terms of submissions...must be that Dog Days of Summer slump we often get. Still, some excellent works for your reading pleasure.

This months' feature is a Review of "The Dictionary of Failed Relationships, the A-Z of heartbreak in short story form.

As always, read and enjoy,

Two by Blueknight, both slightly out-of-season homages to springtime love.

Lovesong to Cabot, Vermont.

fixing a broken road - i'm just him
If Keanu Reeves can do it, so can we.

My husband - angieubaldo
An expectant woman who has gotten more than she expected from her husband.

A small chat.

About a broken heart.

in the eyes of love quote - George Santayana, submitted by aparajita
Historically it took me way too long to realize George Santayana is a different person than Carlos Santana.

Love Quote - Ken Kesey, submitted by B.K.
This month's top-of-the-page quote.

* Pounding Square Pegs into Round Holes * - ~Harem~
I hate to say it but square pegs in round holes is a solid homebuilding idea. It's easier to cut pegs square, even simpler to drill holes that are round, and the resulting join can be very solid. I'll stop being a geek now.

Impossible - jolee
Sensory-evocative work.

Untitled - Jon
An eye for an eye...and fight fire with napalm.

You may believe - anthony
