So today is my birthday, and in honor of that, I'm going to do a hobbit thing and give presents. Today, you can get a copy of a short story I wrote. It's a bit of backstory for one of the supporting characters in my first novel. No sign-ups necessary. Enjoy!

Daily Challenge: 17: Fluff or Feathers?
Who's your favourite animal companion and why? What book are they in?
Note: This is intended to be about fictional animal companions, but if you accidentally "forget" that part and post a picture of your cat/dog/panda instead, that's okay.
