Anita's Notebook

• About This Blog

  
  
  
  Who
  My name's Anita Wirawan and I love stories :).
  
  I read/watch a lot of stories and like to share the most interesting and unusual ones here to see what everyone else thinks about them.
  
  Why
  I had originally started this blog as a way to get things together after my brother Jody died back in 2008, but it's turned into a lot more than that.
  
  I hope you'll find the stories that you need here.
  
  What Next
  Feel free to look around the blog and add your own thoughts or stories, I'd love to hear 'em.
