Good Morning, Afternoon, Evening or Night to you.

First and foremost, thank you to Renee for jumping in to do the wrap up last week. At around 3 pm my time, i got a call and had to head out of town. I left a message for Renee and she came to my rescue. Not sure if I could even try to do a wrap up on my iPhone or iPad

So lets have a check in from everyone reading this blog. What time is it locally for you when you are looking at this? I know people are reading around the world and it would be neat to find out. But if you don't want to disclose the actual time, go with my intro; morning, afternoon, evening or night.

Now what happened this week at the GA Blog? 

Monday, Cia brought us the August Classic Author Feature. It is nice to look back at the stories that early on helped build the site, like every new chapter/story/poem does today!

Following up on the Wednesday was the August Classic Author Excerpt.

BULLETIN BULLETIN BULLETIN
