The Spill
The Spill by Katie Ivey
(2nd place prose winner)
I’m sitting in Inman Perk skimming the endless pages of a textbook that I have to finish reading for class in less than an hour. Maybe if I had found a decent place to park besides the top level of the parking garage, I could’ve had the time to get more reading done… No, probably not. My mind is wandering off again when suddenly the serenity of…

Get Better Soon
Get Better Soon by Laura Burke
When I was a little girl, I remember my mother sitting me down in front of a machine in our living room after we had finished dinner, the family settling down around us, ready to relax for a while before heading to bed.

Locket
Locket by Mei Reily
Up, up, up I climb in an endless expanse of staircase after staircase. Each step creaks and groans with every step I take. Who knows how many years it’s been since they’ve had a human walk on them? The voices from downstairs turn to whispers, and are soon indistinguishable from the howling winds outside. A flash of light briefly illuminates the faded yellow wallpaper…

The Snow Queen
The Snow Queen by Kate Rochford-Price
(staff pick)
Once after an art show at the Lincoln Center in New York, she’d met a prince. His manservant had persistently raised his forefinger, forcing the bidders—ranging from a frivolous heiress to a French museum curator to a middle-aged businessman showing off to his mistress—to climb to his winning number. He bought her piece—Inverted Self…

Tough
Tough by Marley Elliott Now she’s single, but she never complains because she knows that sometimes a girl needs to suck it up. On her back is a dragonfly tattoo. Her heart is harder to get to than Fort Knox, they key is buried under miles of concrete. Her heart has been stamped on, tilled battered and barely beating, she thought it was tough love, and would cry herself to sleep every night. Now…

Velcro
Velcro by Zoe Scheffrin I sit here my gaze fixed on my feet wondering if I’ll be able to reach this time, if the rigid muscles of my back will release far enough. They hold me in place, remind me of the spasms from charlie horses of my youth and the mornings after marathons. I doubt the necessity of shoes anyway because I won’t be doing much today, at most walking to the kitchen just like every…

Watermelon Watermelon
Watermelon Watermelon by Ashley Lee Alice sat in the car, her tiny frame pinned to the seat by the imposing mesh of the seat belt that was too big and almost sashed over her china-doll neck. Having just graduated from a car-seat, though, she was not about to complain. The weight of the fast-food burger in her lap, with its clammy wax paper encasing the greasy pile, sat untouched. She had not…
