From Twitter:
@scottgeiger: Jed Berry's great "Ghost 7, Prince 9" in Ninth Letter 14 (vol. 7, no. 2)
@cdcurtiss: D Chaon (vol. 4, no. 2) & A Monson (vol. 6, no. 2) both had really memorable stories. I also dug the stuff of Matt Bell's that came out recently (vol. 7, no. 2).
From the blog:
Eric: "Stomp Tokyo" by Viet Dinh (vol. 6, no. 2). Nothing goes better with heartbreak than an island full of irradiated monsters.
Monique: "Ghost 7, Prince 9" by Jedediah Berry (vol. 7, no. 2). It's a story that demands its own action figures. You could make your own Ghost 7, Prince 9 play set at home with Playmobil figurines, an old placemat, a shoebox, Knox gelatin and blue food coloring, a cucumber, and some of those die-cut vinyl numbers that they sell at the hobby shop. Maybe some Peeps (for the feast scenes), pointy green Lego trees, and wagon-wheel pasta and toothpicks to make an invading army. And lots of tiny, delicious edicts.
