Tell Me a Story

ARE YOU IN NEED OF A GOOD STORY?
WE THOUGHT SO.

Stories let us run with heroes, play again as children, and see farther than eagles. They fire our curiosity, offering the chance to step outside our world into someone else’s, perhaps to see our own differently when we return.

In this volume you will find 35 of the best (so far) stories, poems, and essays from the Write Now writers’ group in the Twin Cities. Here are a few of the adventures that await you:

• A couple in a restaurant scandalizes the dinner crowd
• A faerie princess risks everything to protect her human charge
• Two apostolic-era disciples find themselves in a 21st-century downtown
• Suburban communities mocked as “little boxes” empower a generation
• An alternate history features a Texas Rangers company of Wagnerian dimensions
• As America enters World War I, a young woman learns hard lessons about love and hate
• Four teenagers join widely diverse residents to defend a Minnesota town against a raging river

Arranged for easy access, these tales will while away an afternoon, a moment at the bus stop, or a sojourn in an office waiting room.

Come, and let us tell you a story…
