I was going to talk about these more, but then I ran out of energy :( But if anyone would like to know more about any of them, poke me in the comments and I'll answer any questions and so forth!

I write four stories! One one was for a song I had ever heard previously. I did two pinch hits and one treat :)

First - my original assignment!

Then two pinch hits! Both were for songs I'd considered treating anyway if I'd had time. I was thinking maybe about drabbles to start with, so both of them turned out pretty short. But I think they were just as long as they needed to be :) Witch Hunt is the only song I already knew.
