As usual Kathleen, really excellent stuff. I'm still learning this Blog stuff so I'm posting this rating rather late. However, better late then never.

Delightful and unusual. Amazingly well-written fiction for a blog. (I am waiting to see it appear in a book.)
The site's author, Kathleen Maher, has a wild imagination and a seemingly endless store of tales to spin. I visit almost every day.

So I though I was reviewing you. Typical of the mistakes I make.

Too soon for me to offer a rating really. I joined only hours ago. Very impressive, though, that the amazing David Bale found me so quickly and added me to group of many friends. That's his skill combined with blogcatalog's efficiency.
Flash fiction interests me because I strive to keep my writing brief, but rarely manage to tell a full story in few than 20 posts limited to 900 words or less. A vingette? I can wrote a scene or mood in 300 words or less. But not novel. He's past "flash fiction" and blazing new territory.
this is the best fiction blog i know of. i think the main key to its effectiveness is the believability of the characters - reading it can be like overhearing people's too personal conversations in a restaurant or on a bus. the other key is it's skillful use of the blog form - it isn't just chopped up to fit - each episode in the serials is complete in itself and moves the main story along.
