Happy Mothers Day!

I know you are busy with your families. This is a quick update on our publication activities today. Our publication factory is open for 24 hours.

I informed our six-week progress in my editorial bulletin yesterday. We achieved our sixth milestone successfully. Those who missed the story yesterday can find it from the attached link.

What did we create today?

I created two sets of curation list for our stories; one for non-fiction stories and one for poetry and fiction. I received excellent feedback both from writers and readers on this approach. We have a Mothers Day special attached in the non-fiction story. Here are the lists for your enjoyment.
