MFA Alum Christopher Notarnicola is in Best Microfiction (Again!)

Congratulations to MFA Alum Christopher Notarnicola on recognition for his short fiction, "College Boy and the County Fair." The piece—originally published in Lost Balloon—has been selected for inclusion in the 2024 edition of Best Microfiction.

An excerpt from "College Boy and the County Fair":

Auntie was cutting vegetables like they weren’t even there, asking why I was worried about who would ride the Ferris Wheel with whom when these girls out here—hacking the back end of a butcher knife through the side of a sweet onion—were always wearing some too-tight torn-up see-through something over popped-up nipples like it’s cool to be cold. She stabbed a peel and brought the knife to her breast. Oh, she said with a moan, twirling the blade. [ . . . ]
