PROSE

____________________

  

Deidra Garcia. "We All Scream for Ice Cream."

The high school football team always lost the championships, and no one really knew why until someone would shake his head and say, “That’s the town without an ice cream man.” And then everyone would pity the poor football players as they trudged, broken-hearted, back to their bus.

 

Matthew Norman. "The First Sentence."

Christopher Allison has written the same sentence seven times.  He has deleted it six times.

 

Jonathan Redhorse. "Mr. Crow, Volume II."

Impossible to summarize. Just trust us.

(Editor's Note: This piece was released in two parts. Look for Part One here.)

 

Rob Rosen. "The IKEA Paradox."

"Voila,” he said, pointing again to the TV.

“What? Alpo? We’re getting a dog?” The commercial had changed; my husband’s demeanor had not.

 

Guy Wilkinson. "The Office." 

Watson runs three red lights so as not to be late for work.
