As mentioned in my previous post, I participate in a lot of Twitter events. As chance would have it, this Friday’s #FictFri challenge was about ‘Fortune‘… I laughed so hard! ‘Felix’ in Latin means ‘lucky’.

When one contacts a detective, they have certain expectations, an anticipation of resolution to […]
