The text is beautifully supported by the gorgeous color photography of Christopher Woods. We are now reading stories of 750 words and under for the 2008 Flash Fiction Contest.

Pleasant Drugs Reviewed in The Pedestal Magazine"Pleasant Drugs is a collection of short fiction, but many of the individual stories also operate as mini-novels. Kulpa has a way of drawing the reader into character depth as well as breadth. Whole lived lives are encapsulated within these pages." --Review by Nathan Leslie Read the whole review in The Pedestal Magazine. |
