Hi friends
One of my short stories titled “If there’s one thing we inherit from our mothers, it’s certainly their madness’ was picked up by Women’s Web for the Muse of the Month Contest.
I had titled the story ‘Crazy Scribbles from Mom‘ but the title was changed by the portal. Also, I struggled to give a befitting ending to the story and submitted it just like that. But maybe, it fitted well for them.
Do click on the link below to read the story. And drop in your views about the same. I would love to hear from you!
“And it was so easy to blame her for anything that went wrong. She was the one ‘responsible’ for the mess in my life and in all our lives. Expected to darn all those dirty holes in there. “

Congratulations on your winning story, Sonia! Janaki’s mother was very wise (and long-suffering). For what it’s worth, I like your original title better than the one the portal chose.
