Post Age 13 Published February 15, 2021 by Sage Millen

At first glance, she seemed like a pack of highlighters had coloured her body. A strange, vividly eccentric girl, she stood in the center of the crowd, and yet seemed so separate from it. Her hair, cut in a jagged, voluminous bob, was neon blue, and she absentmindedly curled a stray strand around her finger.

Fox Girl

Post Age 11 Published February 15, 2021 by Josh Elman

Post Published February 15, 2021 by Molly Torinus

Angie’s Tale

Post Age 10 Published February 13, 2021 by Lina Kim

The crunch of the leaves under Angie’s boots chilled her to the bone. She was running, running in the forest. Why? Why was she running? She couldn’t remember. She couldn’t remember anything. Hiss. Angie froze. It was them. Who is them? she wondered. She turned around. She remembered them now. The horrifying spirit floated in midair, its bat-like wings flapping noiselessly.

Ginger and the Beast

Post Age 10 Published February 12, 2021 by Rachael Lippe

Ginger and the Beast by Rachael Lippe Ginger sat on her toadstool and thumped her heels against the stem. Thump, thump, thump, thump, and then some more thumping. Ginger allowed her legs to hang, but the thumping did not go away.
