This week's free story comes from the By Thistle By Thimble collection. It's called "The Goldsmith Who Knew How to Fish."   Wren has a happy life in the city with the exception that he doesn't have time for his favorite activity. When his work as a goldsmith starts to suffer, his wife and his boss encourage him to take a week off and go fishing. He agrees and brings his little daughter to a nearby fishing river — and remembers why fishing is so important to him and his work as a jewelry maker.   If you enjoyed that story, there are hundreds more where that came from.
