Tuesday Tales - Where #Authors #Write to a #Prompt: CUP

From all of the Tuesday Tales authors our condolences to all those who have lost a loved over the last few days during the violence in France and Beirut.

Our heart goes out to you all.

When something so severe happens in the world, a wave of shock and disbelief comes over us and numbs us. There's never a right or wrong in how and when we go on with our daily life,

so today's posts are written respectfully with those who passed in our minds.
