Web Exclusives We’ve Known and Loved
21 Dec
This week, we’re taking a look back at stories we’ve published and loved in 2009—consider it an ASF highlights reel. Today, we start with a few of our web exclusives. We started this series back in February as a way to publish more writers (and to show off more flash fiction). We’ve been surprised the variety of short fiction that’s come our way.
In this group, we’ve got stories about violent family drama, Cajuns and ghosts, and an abominable, terrifying baby. There’s also a funny love story with word problems. Hope you enjoy!
February: “Paper Planes” by Laura Madeline Wiseman
April: “Mark Twain Comes to Cut Off, Louisiana: A Ghost Story” by Stephanie Soileau
September: “Tied to Us” by John Maradik
November: “Arizona” by Rachel Khong
All good choices, but Scott Garson’s “Premises for an Action Plan” was definitely my favorite.
