Short stories told by Janetta

Shortish Stories with no moral outcome,

twist or particular destiny…

…alternatively these are all stories with a moral or strange twist.  Of course there is no such thing as destiny; destiny is a fictional device that writers use to remind readers and listeners that the future is a strange and unpredictable situation about which one can never be too sure…

​
