Many college students hold the dream of getting their work published nationally.
Rarely do college students realize this dream while still in school. The 20 original stories were chosen by a panel of judges, and the task must have been a daunting one, given the variety of stories and characters included in the collection. Topics covered by the talented undergrads include a bearded woman and a tattooed man trying to escape a freakshow, a lonely girl far away from home but too scared to get to know anyone and a middle-aged pencil pusher whose life is run by an unwanted genie. The artists also take free license with their writing styles. The young age of the authors doesn't hinder their creativity in any way, shape or form.
