Paul McCartney vs Justin Bieber
Paul McCartney vs Justin Bieber - My Writing Process Blog Tour. My phone vibrates and when I look at the screen, see the DM icon from Twitter. Who could be contacting me? I swipe the screen, and I see the name and I’m both confused and delighted that it’s Voima Oy. In my head, this …

An update of my "The day a dog fell from the sky" story.
