Good morning! Welcome to the weekend update of the stories we published this last week and maybe some extra stuff. This article is complete and self-contained right here.

Of course, it will be even more complete and even more self-contained in our newsletter, where it also will contain more items like your horoscope, a gossip column, movie reviews, a song video, classified advertisements, and other expanded elements.

It’s important, at this point, to explain why this Weekend update is happening on more of a “window of opportunity” basis. We can use the same image regardless of the day of publication. I still intend to ramble through all the different stories on Writer Squeezin’s Ranch, generally wading into my stream of consciousness.

In fact, the primary purpose of this story is to give you a list of stories we published last week in case you missed any.

Look, we’re a family here. We have to save our energy for Thursday at dinner, the traditional time for arguments. That’s when we all fall out onto the green fighting, not now.

So for now, thanks for being here, family. It’s very good to see you!

Last week’s stories

Neither of my high school English teachers thought I would ever amount to much. Well, I showed them — now I’m a big-time writer!
