The Fondue Writer’s Club is at it again, this time with Independence Day themed stories.

My favorite of these is when the writers take the theme and then zag as everyone else is zigging. That is what our hopeless romantic Paul Bennett does with today’s story, Independence Day, a delicious twist on the theme. Paul’s great strength is his use of mental word pictures — drops of water, olive skin, hesitation and doubt — all of these come to life in his stories.

Click on the tissue coming out of the ‘library’ below to read his wonderful stories. More will come later this week all the way through to The Fourth of July! Enjoy
