Magpie Monday

[ysabetwordsmith]

dialecticdreamer is hosting Magpie Monday with a theme of "reaching."  Leave prompts, get ficlets!

Because one of the aims for this event is to get money, there is a paypal link to a tip jar at the bottom of this page .I call myself a pennysmith, and figure a penny a word if someone wants to buy a story and have it posted after another editing pass. However, if there are a total of $65 in tips, I will also post “Resolving Troubles,” which is a 6500 word story set in the Berettafly Garden set of stories in the Polychrome Heroics universe. The story can be summarized as “Santiago DeJesus goes DOWN.”
