Working with @MISTERBULLBULL has been amazing from start to finish. Please check out my piece, “Stopgap” which gave me the chance to write from the perspective of a young boy who’s just lost his father.
"Ethan’s the only kid in the third grade with a dead dad. Some of his friends have two dads and his friend Henry’s got two moms, but no one’s got only one."@AmyAllenVT mrbullbull.com/newbull/flash…
