Good Wednesday-Friday Fictioneers Day, my peeps! Today I have attempted a “Rochelle-esque” story. Plus, it’s my photo and I swear, when Rochelle asked me for it, I knew exactly what I was going to do. Well sorta-kinda exactly. I also swear, I did NOT read her story first.

Should you like to attempt your own 100-word story based on my picture of the New-ish Montreal Symphony House, then click on the blue frog and add your link. Easy-peasy. If you want the official rules and regs, click on Rochelle’s name above….And THEN add your story 😉
