Under the wise gaze of ‘The Butterfly Witch’ by Melissa Mary Duncan, this issue promises at least two sides to every story.
Siblings work through past hurts and begin new journeys in ‘Old Gifts’ by feature author James Sallis and ‘Can-on-a-String’ by Alex Kitt. Meanwhile, zombies do double duty in ‘Ambience’ by Jason P Burnham and ‘Caught Dead’ by Shawn L Bird. We navigate new lands with Pete Barnstrom in ‘Oeufs Dangereux’ and Cheryl Skory Suma in ‘Adrift off the Shore of Alzheimer Island’. And Anna Zumbro in ‘The Dump ‘Em Dog’ and Mikael Lopez and Enrico Orlandi in ‘Forgive My Delay’ remind us that, no matter the world in which we live, breaking up is hard to do. Next, triple your literary delight with historical fiction: ‘The Shepherdess: Grandmère Paris’ by JM Landels, ‘Pretty Lies: I Can See for Miles’ by Mel Anastasiou, and ‘Once Upon a Time in Camelot’ by GD Litke. Three’s the charm for poetry too, with our Magpie Award winners Cara Waterfall’s ‘griefbody’ and ‘Harvest’ and Kevin Spenst’s ‘Big German Dialect Word Clankingly Inserted Here!’.
