No. Although it certainly looks that way! haha I didn’t forget, but I haven’t had a chance to rectify the issue yet. It was a tie between three stories, and I haven’t had a chance to read them all yet, so I can be the deciding vote. I’ll be adding that this week, though! Crazy month of August it was. Phew!

Work got in the way (excuses excuses!) and I missed this one. But knowing that “sacrilege” is next week’s prompt got me started on a sacrilege/derelict idea over lunch. It was a much-needed escape even if I only jotted down a few paragraphs. Thanks for all you do, Rachael!
