The Lumber-Room

Once upon a time there was a little girl who wanted to write. She made wonderful beginnings and then let them languish in notebooks and boxes underneath the bed and tucked away at the backs of drawers. They piled up, word upon word, getting all smudgy and dog-eared and sad. Beginnings don't like to be left alone, so this is my lumber room for all the things I'm working on. Be prepared for things to be a little dusty. Comments much appreciated, especially if you don't like something I've written. Tell me why, that'd be great. If you liked it, that'd be good too.
