A. Grifa’s story was chosen as one of three winning stories in 3rd Wednesday’s annual flash fiction contest by contest Judge, John F. Buckley. He said, “Rich with imagery and anaphora, taut with poetic compression, this vignette vividly captures a fraught sociological moment without leading the reader too much by the hand.“
Read it here and in the autumn issue of 3rd Wednesday.

“On and off, sunrise and sunset, flashes of angst yet what may be a steady final resolution — this story deftly navigates what we don’t know about others and ourselves.” – John F. Buckley, Contest Judge
