Celebrate the Small Things is a weekly celebration created by VikLit and now hosted by Lexa Cain to celebrate the happenings of the week, however small or large. You can learn all about it and sign up for it here. 
Sorry I’m late to the party! This week’s celebrations:
- I have a short story for the IWSG Anthology Contest, which is an accomplishment for me, because rarely does anything I write end up short. Ironically, though, the story is actually too short for the 3,000 to 6,000 word limit, so I’m not quite sure what I’m going to do with it.
- We went to my daughter’s National Honor Society induction ceremony. I’m so proud of her!
- On Saturday, we made our traditional trek through the corn maze! It’s always fun, and the best part is eating bakery treats afterward. Yum!
What other celebrations are going on out there?

Congrats on getting that story written and for your daughter! Corn mazes are so fun…you reminded me of something we’re going to have to hit too.

Always wanted to go through a corn maze.
3000 words! See what you can do to hit it.

The maze we go through involves solving a mystery by finding various clues at checkpoints throughout the maze. It’s a blast.
I don’t think it’s going to get there, but we’ll see.

I did my first draft for the anthology and it was too short. So, I tinkered with the plot a little and now I’m worried I’ll go over!

Can you stretch the story a little? I know sometimes that can weaken the story…

I’ve tried adding more to it, but I don’t like it as well.
