A while back, we invited listeners to send us a short story or a poem about their homes for a feature called "Stories from Home."
We're resurrecting this feature, but we're calling it "First Person" a place for you to give us your stories, poems, or short fiction. So far it's been a resounding success with entries from all over the country—and beyond. Frankly, we're a bit overwhelmed. Be patient with us as we continue to post the best of the bunch.
