Here is a list of stories so far, plus you can find lots more stories at the Diigo Library; I add new stories there every day. These are the Stories-of-the-Day at Diigo (with short summaries). On August 5, I chose "aetiologies" as my theme for the year, stories about how things came to be the way that they are.
I've got all the stories I need for Fall semester, but I'll be back with more next semester. :-)
