“But why didn’t Brooke’s voice echo like ours did?” “That kind of stuff never works for me,” muttered Brooke. “Physics,” Mrs. Trudeau said. “Some pitches just don’t echo. Or, I guess, you just can’t hear them. Like a duck! Did you know that you can’t hear a duck’s quack echo?” Brooke said, “I’m not a duck.”

Ever feel like you just don't belong? Even amongst your own family? Like you're not even real? Then you might understand how Brooke feels. Check out "A Butterfly's Echo" by Sean MacKendrick. It's out now in our 83rd issue!

It's a great story, Ken. I love the descriptive language.

"Award winning" is going into my bio toot sweet.

Wow, that's an honor! Thank you so much!

It's a little bit embarrassing to discover how personally I can still take a rejection email, especially when the criticism is both detailed and accurate.

Cover art for "Humanizing Rex" by Sean MacKendrick A man with a black and gold vest and an eye patch holding a dalmatian puppy while rainbow lights that also form the title beam out from a planet behind his head, evoking divine imagery.
