**due to power outage, which started Tuesday afternoon for me, I haven’t had access to computer or wifi. It is too battery & time-consuming to update links on my phone. I will update the entries as soon as I can! I apologize for the inconvenience! In the meantime, you can find links to most of the stories in the comments section below & battlers pages using the “BlogBattlers” menu tab above! 🙂 Thanks for your patience and understanding. *****
