Illustration Friday: Hoard -

"Sitting On Something That Everybody Wanted"
digital collage by Mick Mather

This week's theme, hoard, at Illustration Friday was just too tough for me to deal with after the long week I've had. I've taken an image that I like and gave it a twisting title with a play on words. Forgive me, but I'm almost asleep as I attempt to finish this up.

"Lake of Tears"

There's a story here. I've decided not to tell it. If you're out there and found your way in here, study this evening's post and write a story for me. Not a long story, a short, short, short one. About a paragraph at the longest length, any shorter tale to tell will be just fine. You can email it to me or leave it in the comments box; either way, I'll put it here, with this image as soon as possible after receiving it. If more than one? None? Gee, I really hadn't thunked over it that fur! Let's see what happens.
