"Hope" - a short story

I wanted to release it in honor of Dolly’s passing. She truly was an icon who never stopped living a full life. I wrote this story in 2016. I was struck late one night while listening to Dolly Parton’s “Jolene”. Creativity hits us all in different kinds of ways. It’s fun to see how far my writing has come in over a decade. This is raw and mostly unedited. -Colleen
