And I will log them all on this page.

I will try not to read the same author twice, but I’m making no promises. I love some authors (like Alice Munro) and cannot be expected to forsake them because of some project — especially when i make the rules. More rules: Some stories will be really short, because I just want to get one read. Some stories will be ones I have read before, possibly while in school.

This will be my second attempt at such an endeavor. My first attempt lasted a couple months. Then some big work projects and a change of apartments finally got the best of me. (My favorite, as I recall, was the one by Wells Tower.) Here is the catalogue of those days:
