FUN, FICKLE FICTION FOR FREE!



The Daily Piece is, technically, a misnomer: It will be updated on weekdays mostly, with the possibility of occassional weekend postings, which is almost daily, but not really. As for legal holidays, there's a fifty-fifty shot of something new being posted. In addition, Y.P.R. will probably take off the whole holiday period surrounding Christmas and New Year's. Also, Y.P.R. may give up posting entirely during Lent.

So, if you like, consider this the Mostly Daily Piece.

Either way, enjoy.
