David's Shorts
I have a tendency to create Random Writings from time to time. Sometimes these are the beginnings of things that have never happened, sometimes they are supplements to other writings. At times I write short pieces for charities or as stand-alone pieces to amuse. So, here are the random contents of one of my writing drawers.
