@DerekJAnd& #39;s The Manual for a Boy& #39;s First Grill, what an opener! An exquisite hermit crab portrait. I can hear the voice in this piece, it& #39;s gruff and rough and so real. As is the father-son relationship at the center of this superb story. https://www.barrelhousemag.com/onlinelit/2020/10/19/the-manual-for-a-boys-first-grill">https://www.barrelhousemag.com/onlinelit...

@byEJSchwartz& #39;s The Virgin Girls showcases an amazing one-two punch within the first two sentences. Then exemplifies, to great effect, what brevity can bring to story.
