\"jdp<\/a>We originally hoped to find a few stories featuring la petite mort <\/em>for issue sixty-nine<\/a>, because our sense of humor is highly sophisticated. What we present here is less petite, <\/em>more la mort. <\/em>Ah, well; c’est la vie<\/em>. Or, you know, not. However, what we actually ended up with is better than what we thought we wanted, as is so often the case.<\/p>\n

Jill Hand’s “Incident at Ong’s Hat<\/a>” is a thoroughly Jersey story. Michael D\u00edaz Feito’s “Yoel the Chickenkeeper<\/a>,” uses vivid imagery to tell a brief, sad tale. Taylor Putorti’s “Transition<\/a>” guides you through liminal space, and Susan Kaempfer’s “Spawn<\/a>” explores unusual life choices and their effects. Allina Nunley’s “Scorpion Midnight<\/a>” soothes with death’s sweet sting. Lastly, William Ables’ “Western Dark<\/a>” lets you ride along on a supernatural road trip. Our own Samuel Snoek-Brown did the on-theme cover art<\/a> this month, so make sure you check that out, too.<\/p>\n
