The book Enchanted Night by Steven Millhauser (one of my favorites) is set on a night just like this one: a late-summer night under an almost-full moon. It’s a perfect book for nights like these!
Anyway, here’s a guest blog post by Julie about one of our adventures this summer:

Does anyone have a story you’d like to tell here about your own series of unfortunate choices, whether things turned out badly or well? — or a story about a trip you took this summer? (Just a key moment from such a trip can make the best kind of story: a scene you saw, an epiphany that came to you, the impact a certain place or person or situation had on you this summer. There’s a key to good writing in that: usually, the more specific you get, the more universal your scene becomes. Include those real details, take us into your moment, and you will take us into a moment of our own.) We’re all ears!
