Hello lovers of flash fiction.  The summer is coming to an end and what better way to celebrate that than a host of stories that deal with the idea of obligation.  We have all dealt with this feeling in one way or another.  Please enjoy the following 8 stories from 8 different perspectives.

I am please to welcome five newcomers to the IBAS family:  John Riley, John Grochalski, Denis M. Sheehan, Bud Smith, and Bruce J. Berger.

I am also pleased to say “hello to my little friends” that keep coming back for more:  Misti Rainwater-Lites, Maude Larke, and Timothy Gager.

I want to take this time to say thank you to all the great writers who have made this project possible.  I get such great support from the fans of this website and your energy keeps it all going.  After Episode 31 (which comes out in December), I am going to be going to a new format.  I will be putting out new episodes only once every two months instead of monthly.  I love to keep my deadlines and the monthly format has me feeling rushed sometimes to put out the best possible group of stories.  I want to deliver a great product so the new format will start in January of 2013.

Thank you for your patience and support.  Enjoy this episode.  Comment.  Writers love to know what you think.
