Compelling Story Telling
Wow! I got this book with high hopes, considering my own work was published here. And, let me say, I was not disappointed. I particularly enjoyed Medicine Memory by Claire L. Brouhard, and the Grafiti story. It was one of the first ones. Anyway, top notch story telling. I love the pacing and the details in the work here. I love the gritty, no nonsense style of the writers.

I've read this book several times, always finding new themes, new details in the stories. Great work from many great writers.

Two for Two
The second literary journal is just as good as the first. It's professionally edited and designed, and the writing is great. A lot of good stories in this one that are different, each one with a unique voice to its narration, which makes it very enjoyable.

Great fiction
Obviously, I'm proud of my own pair of short stories in this literary journal, but I found a lot of the pieces here to be thoroughly enjoyable. The journal looks great, reads great, and is well edited. The stories are a thoroughly exceptional quality. ... Read more
