An interesting request

Someone, I won’t say who, asked if I had any unpublished stories kicking around.  This person wants to translate a story for a translation competition.  I was flattered to have received such a request, I can tell you.  And I’m going to try to write a story, if this person wants me to.  If, that is, I can find the time.  I already have an idea, and I have started scribbling something down.  All I have to do is keep those creative juices flowing and develop something interesting.
