ABOUT JOHN WHITE!
On this blog, I write short stories and flash fiction about the soulful people in my life, trying to capture the bits of soul I prize in them. I post a new story just about every weekend, both here and on the palm tree in front of my house.
Really, though, this is a blog about people we all know. Sign up for a story a week, and you’re bound to read things here that remind you of the soulful people in your life, too.
And yes, I realize it should read “Just Somebody Whom You Used to Know.” I’ll try to get it right next time.
