In This Issue:
It’s summertime, and the water’s fine … or is it? ‘Collector’ by cover artist Akem beckons us beneath the surface and between the pages. But in ‘A Collection of Secrets’ by feature author Rhea Rose and ‘The Island’ by M Denise Beaton, we discover that some treasures are better left hidden.
Back on shore, summer brings around friends both new and old in ‘Audrey and the Crow’ by Cadence Mandybura, ‘The Two Oh Four Six’ by Dustin Moon, ‘Floaters’ by Kevin Sandefur, and ‘Whispers in Between My Shoulder Blades’ by Christine Breede.
Shapeshifers in ‘Shadow Work’ by Soramimi Hanarejima and ‘Gwannyn’s Song’ by JM Landels show us the secret to sacrifice. And families come together, reshaped, in Kaile Shilling’s Si WC honourable mention, ‘Death and Laughter’.
Allison Bannister in ‘The Play’s the Thing’ and Mel Anastasiou in ‘Pretty Lies: Hold On’ draw inspiration from the classics. And poetry from Dawn Macdonald and Yuan Changming reminds us that love is classic too.
