Tuesday Tales - word prompt 'greasy'

 

Welcome to Tuesday Tales! Each week, authors write story snippets to word prompts. Our word for this week is "greasy."

Click on the name of each author to go to her blog and read the free story. Make sure to visit all the authors.

It’s easy reading this week – ‘real life’ issues have settled in on a few of our writers this week, so you’re getting a small sampling this week. But that makes for quick and easy reading for you.

Make sure to come back next week when we’ll have more story snippets for you.

Thanks for your support!
