Welcome Readers!

I'm DJPM (Debra Juanita Phillips Miller),.....the DJ who spins stories, not records!

Their outrageous antics prove that they are worth knowing just like this blog's sister blog www.charactersworthknowing.blogspot.com proves for all of its characters. So get ready for the slightly unique, the ultimate in brief, and the truly unforgettable when you read short story, after short story, after short story here on the Reading Marathon!
