Sparks: A Telling Room Anthology

by The Telling Room, Sameeksha Singh (Contributor)

WHAT CREATES SPARKS? What produces those flashes of light, the jolt of energy up your spine and through your fingertips when you are faced with the unexpected? In this 2017 anthology, sixty Telling Room authors explore encounters—the chance meetings and moments of connection that supply the sparks to ignite a story.

Within these pages of poems, flash fiction, short stories, journalism, and personal essays you will meet a pocket-sized dinosaur at a birthday party and a bull moose in the forest, confront prejudice and worst enemies, and face the loss of home and the birth of a new sibling. The magic that passes between and beyond those brief points of contact is kindling for the fire roaring in this book.
