My story Ms. Ishmael’s Box is one of the top-rated stories in the “Teleport Us” Sci-Fi short story contest over at LitReactor with a 100% thumbs-up rating. It has been as high as #5 but is currently at #12. And if I win, what’s the prize? I get my story read and critiqued by none other than Chuck Palahniuk.
If you’re on LitReactor, go read and rate it.
Here’s the description:
“When retired teacher Ms. Ishmael is shot and killed by crossing guards on the front lawn of a local high school it’s up to Det. Washington to find out why she refused to stop when challenged — and to uncover what’s so important about the box she was carrying when she fell.”
