Do we all have dream worlds and dream adventures? I know I do. As a child, I was chastised in class because my eyes, my imagination, were always out the window and I still sit and stare. The first thing I do every morning is throw open the blinds even though the scene never changes. I really like story, it touches the heart of me ❤️

Thanks. I did that deliberately. In the first draft, it was her husband, but I decided to empower her!

Great story, Dascha! These images are breathtaking. As soon as I saw the first image I was instantly drawn into a fantasy world. Thanks for the inspiration!

We all write so much, it's a wonder we remember much of anything! 😆
