Laugh Out Loud

Oh my gosh, talk about laughing out loud! I was reading the Writer’s Block story “Di€erent Versions” by Ardith Trudzik (January 2020) in bed while my hubby was already softly snoring. When I laughed out loud, his snoring came to an abrupt halt. “What’s wrong?” he mumbled. “Nothing. Go to sleep,” I said. Seconds later I laughed even louder. His snoring snorted to a stop again. “What?” he growled. “This story—it’s hilarious! She’s a great writer.” He grabbed all the covers and rolled away with them. He didn’t even have the courtesy to ask what the story was about. Men! Thank you Ardith Trudzik for the late night laugh. I loved your story. Barbara Wackerle Baker, Calgary
