About Us
We only publish novel excerpts. Some magazines and journals take excerpts, but they want them twisted and crammed into the shape of a short story. We're dedicated to real excerpts that feel like they come from novels we want to read -- they may pop us into the action and leave us hanging at the end. Each issue includes 5 winning novel excerpts from our contest across a variety of styles and genres. |

Our Team
Founding Editor
Hardy Griffin knows what it means to force excerpts of a novel into a short story format for recognition, as excerpts from his forthcoming novel, Sara and Eser, have been published in fresh.ink (special Father's Day feature), New Flash Fiction, Alimentum, and have been finalists for the 2019 Narrative Winter Prize, the Tucson Book Festival, and the ScreenCraft Cinematic Short Story contest. His writing has appeared in The Washington Post, Assisi, American Letters & Commentary, and he authored the chapter, "Voice: The Sound of a Story" in Writing Fiction: The Practical Guide from Gotham Writer's Workshop (Bloomsbury). His translations can be found in Words Without Borders: The Kurdish Issue, The Istanbul Biennial, and for the award-winning photographic study of Armenians' daily lives in Turkey today entitled Armeniéns/Ermeniler/Armenians.
Associate Editor
Stephanie Johnson has spent most of her adult life overseas teaching English literature, ESL and Spanish at universities and adult education settings that span the globe. She has most recently been published in Vagabonds, Anthology of the Mad Ones and she has several pieces appearing soon in Sink Hollow and Forum Literary Magazine. Her writing often focuses on the slightly uncomfortable space of the expatriation/ repatriation experience. She is currently based in San Francisco.
