The latest story in our 2020 Authors Showcase is a real treat. It comes from Susan Mellsopp, who has been a regular contributor to this blog, and is her first this year. As she explains, "I am afraid I have not been particularly enthusiastic about writing this year, I think our strict lockdown put the brakes on a lot of things." I believe that puts into words how many of us feel.
I found her new story truly inspirational and am so pleased she decided to share it with us. You can read Susan's contribution My Silvery Friend by clicking here.
