Medium Chill: Issue 3
MEDIUM CHILL began as a sophisticated literary journal but morphed into a collaborative underground 'zine full of short stories, flash fiction, poetry, and art from writers and artists from all over the globe. Some of them even have their own books—so if you're not a fan of one, go read another—this is an anthology.
Most likely, you'll notice some minor formatting errors and probably a few slips in grammar and mechanics, but nothing that will impede clarity; so just try to have some kind of orgasmic reading experience pondering the darkly honest works from writers who may be new to you. Writers work very hard, often for little reward or acknowledgement – so before you negatively review, ask yourself if you've done better. If yes – shoot an email and provide the link of your best effort to the MEDIUM CHILL we'll let you know if you're correct But if no, you should get on that then--get to steppin' on your best effort instead of offering negative reviews of others' works. The internet is full of snark and pessimism; that's nothing special—but your genuine insight and positive review just might be.
Medium Chill Issue 3 is a flash fiction series dedicated to both first-timers and veteran writers; this issue featuring Stew Miller, Steven \Santana, Tom Mohler, Pete Chiarella, Clifton Boggs, Ilaria Easom, Jason Simon, David McCoy, Perry Phillips, and Dr. Rhonda Baughman. Cover by P. Puzzle

Even if two of my own stories, "Kayfabe" and "Gun Land", were not included in this collection, I'd still say it's the best issue in the series so far. Dealing more or less with the topic of childhood, these stories span genres and moods and include madcap superhero hijinx, political satire, post-apocalyptic adventure, horror, and what I can only describe as quicksand fetish erotica. My favorites in this issue include Perry M. Phillips's "Ms. Postolento", in which a babysitter debates epistemology with a precocious French child, Dr. Rhonda Baughman's "Good Neighbor Rich", in which a mundane suburban interaction is transformed into a tense gun-drawn standoff, and Tom Meadowick's "Later", which presents the greatest afterlife scenario this side of Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey. Not every story worked for me and even my own could use a little more polishing, but, all in all, I enjoyed this a lot and look forward to future issues.
