February 2008We had three great new flashes this issue, and one classic flash—and a nice balance of literary and science fiction, to boot. Dave Hoing used his incredible voice to show us “The Souls of the Harvest”, Jeff Soesbe gave us a quirky and fun story about a robot that serves mankind in an unusual way in “Apologies All Around”, and Ann Pino showed us life in a TB ward with “Masquerade at Well Country Camp”. (These are Ann and Jeff’s first professional sales, too, so when they’re famous, remember this site.) Our Classic Flash is a sci fi treat from E.M. Clinton—completely done in telegrams.
