Fifty-three students. One assignment. No rules. Amid typical high school stresses and constraints, a creative challenge provides insight into the minds of teenagers. Given the sole guideline to "write what you know," a group of high school juniors has reached deep within themselves to produce pieces of work which genuinely reflect their newly-discovered individual styles. In doing so, students have found both their voices and the courage to put forth stories under their own names, vulnerable to critics everywhere. Their ambition proves that anything is possible. The sky is green.

It all started with a random 2:00 am phone call on October 1, 2001. The caller was anonymous, and the message they gave was intelligible... This is the story of a young boy who once died in a pool but was raised to life by the grace of God. The story of his mother continues from that day to include her many encounters with the Lord through dreams, heavenly signs, and life events. The many stories in this book are meant to provide encouragement, inspiration, strength, faith, and hope to all who read its words.

With clarity, verve, and the sure instincts of a good teacher, Madison Smartt Bell offers a roll-up-your-sleeves approach to writing in this much-needed book. Focusing on the big picture as well as the crucial details, Bell examines twelve stories by both established writers (including Peter Taylor, Mary Gaitskill, and Carolyn Chute) and his own former students. A story's use of time, plot, character, and other elements of fiction are analyzed, and readers are challenged to see each story's flaws and strengths. Careful endnotes bring attention to the ways in which various writers use language. Bell urges writers to develop the habit of thinking about form and finding the form that best suits their subject matter and style. His direct and practical advice allows writers to find their own voice and imagination.

In these five stories, Ernest Gaines returns to the cane fields, sharecroppers' shacks, and decaying plantation houses of Louisiana, the terrain of his great novels A Gathering of Old Men and A Lesson Before Dying. As rendered by Gaines, this country becomes as familiar, and as haunted by cruelty, suffering, and courage, as Ralph Ellison's Harlem or Faulkner's Yoknapatawpha County. Gaines introduces us to this world through the eyes of guileless children and wizened jailbirds, black tenants and white planters. He shows his characters eking out a living and making love, breaking apart aand coming together. And on every page he captures the soul of black community whose circumstances make even the slightest assertion of self-respect an act of majestic—and sometimes suicidal—heroism. Bloodline is a miracle of storytelling. STORIES INCLUDE: A Long Day in November The Sky Is Gray Three Men Bloodline Just Like a Tree

The gripping, hugely entertaining conclusion of K.J. Parker's Fencer Trilogy. After years spent in the saps under the defenses of the apparently impregnable city of Ap'Iscatoy, Bardas Loredan, sometimes fencer-at-law and betrayed defender of the famed Triple City, is suddenly hero of the Empire. His reward is a boring administrative job in a backwater, watching armor tested to destruction in the Proof House. But the fall of Ap'Iscatoy has opened up unexpected possibilities for the expansion of the Empire into the land of the Plains people, and Bardas Loredan is the one man Temrai the Great, King of the Plains tribes, fears the most.
