What People Are Saying…
“Wow! So many things I loved about this story. This story has so many layers…redemption, judgement, survival. The great descriptions put you in the story. I was planning my escape, what I would do, what things I would gather, which direction I would go, what weapon I would choose.”
— Melissa Ethridge about “Prisoner”
“Oh no! What a turn! Shed a tear reading this. Good reminder as I start what seems like a really important workday, it's not. Perspective. Well done Midnight Carnival.”
— Jack Murakami about “Relative Distance”
