Maine writers, take note! The Maine Writers & Publishers Alliance and Shanti Arts Publishing are inviting Mainers to write and submit short stories in response to a series of lovely paintings by Maine artist Leslie Anderson. Details here. Thank you to both groups for handing me a week of prompts on a silver platter! I chose “Street Dance” for today’s inspiration.
