Sad Swallow, A Two Sentence Story, Fairytale Retold
In a voice that plucked at her heart strings, her dear swallow lamented, “All winter we exchanged stories, my beautiful Thumbelina, and it made my heart soar. When you climbed upon my back and begged me to take you to my favorite far away land, how could I have known my happy dream would end with you forsaking me for another?”

Priss Starwillow & the Wolf
I love this short story! The setting is incredibly immersive, the characters are well fleshed out and captivating, and it got me wanting more. Great writing wraps everything together perfectly. “His eyes found hers again.” Also, I have a huge crush on Sam now.
