I wanted to take a moment and acknowledge a very pleasant surprise today. In checking in to get started on Part 2 for 'Survivors', I noticed two oddities in the comments section. The first was from the beautiful Sandra Cox inviting me over to her blog. Another was from another reader that said they just came from there.
Well, being the curious muppet (read: procrastinator) that I am, I couldn't help but take a look before I dug in
To my utter surprise, I was the subject of Sandra's 'Wink and a Nod Thursday'.
First and foremost, I want to officially say 'Thank you' to Sandra. It was a completely unexpected honor and single handedly made my day. If you haven't checked out Sandra's blog, I would highly encourage you to check it out! On top of being an amazingly talented writer with a taste for Romance, she's a fellow member of the blogspot writing community and her blog is light hearted and enjoyable, serving as one of the glues that has helped bind us together with things like Wacky Wednesday and the aforementioned 'Wink and a Nod'.
So, when all is said and done, thank you again Sandra.
Now, for those that were sent here by Sandra, I just wanted to give you a quick little gift. The story that you came in on, Survivors, is part of a group of short stories that are set together to form a single cohesive narrative. While you can technically pick up the tale without issue from 'Survivors', the previous stories 'Lost' and 'Heat' will provide you more insight into what is going on. They are designed to be small and hard hitting, so take a moment to enjoy them.

Lost - 3
Lost - 4

Thank you again Sandra and thank you everyone who took time out of the day to check us out. I hope you will all join us again.

Sandra is an incredibly generous blogger. I have also never followed any of her winks and nods without finding lots to enjoy.
