Summer Solstice Issue

I was once a little girl, which is to say I was once a hungry, wild little thing, which is to say I was once a wolf.  - Meagan Patrick

It was truly an incredible experience to put together this issue and explore the world of creative nonfiction and flash fiction! We had many terrific submissions and had to make some difficult decisions, and we are thankful to all who submitted. We hope you enjoy these 11 brilliant pieces by 10 wonderful authors and have a wonderful summer solstice!
