Weekly Finalist: Stanley by Lauren Flax

Sheila started with all of the past life business after her brother got cancer. She started buying weird books from the hippie dippy bookstore downtown, and sometimes at night she would lean into the garage while I was working on my bike and say stuff like, “Stan, come in and spend some time with me, [...]

Weekly Finalist: Fly on the Wall by Lea Stahl

A thousand, thousand screens reflect what I see and what I see is you. I’m your unknown stalker who watches your every move, who follows you wherever and everywhere you please, and knows you like no other. I am one of many in this world, but will never survive the next day; Part of a [...]

Weekly Finalist: Untitled by Andrew Cloud

The solitary hawk surveyed the landscape. Sun. Heat. Clouds lazily cruised through the solid blue sky. Breeze. A small, brown blur is spotted through the foliage. Rodent. Food. Flight. Wings spread, it takes off. Feathers ripple, wind feebly tugs at the edges of the being. The blur is much closer. Dive. Consume. And that is [...]

Weekly Finalist: The Mirror by Alexandra Paun

The Mirror
The silver moon was astounding, he thought. The cold light made everything appear as if belonging to a recurrent dream from his childhood. But ever since that night he couldn’t dream anymore. He would often lie there, on his bed, head sinking in the pillows, and he would imagine how it felt like to [...]

Weekly Finalist: Untitled by Brian Shea

Untitled
Sean ran his fingers through his hair for about the eighteenth time. Then he sighed, protruding his lower lip in another futile attempt to make his bangs flutter. He envied girls who could do that. If he could do that at the perfect moment on stage, maybe a girl in the audience looking at one [...]
