Griffin, Kelly Hill, Trista Hurley-Waxali, Kanya Kanchana, Juliana Lamy, Cassidy McCants, Erin Piasecki, Devin Porter, Xenia Taiga, and Miranda Williams. Shrieking mermaids, men in trapped in bottles, and a boy with a glass arm.

Filled with equal parts humor and melancholy, this collection is a literary delight.
