All My Top Stories in One Place

A Treasury of My Best Work (According to Vocal)

By Mother CombsPublished about a year ago Updated 14 days ago 2 min read

Below, you will find a list of my Top Stories and Poems. I've compiled this list hoping to make it easier to locate and read them for future reference.

Now, this list of stories Vocal has said are my best writing. You may not like these stories, so you might not agree.

If you decide to read any of these stories, Thank You from the bottom of my heart. If you don't, that's okay, too. I understand either way.

    This is a nice thought and great way to see your success al in one area. Thank you for sharing

  • A great idea to keep them all in one place. I have done a few collections including my most read that Vocal and Creators have taken little notice of, Excellent work and this could get a Top Story and will probably spark others to do the same
