Birthday Candles by Jacqueline Jules

Posted on Nov 15, 2016Oct 13, 2017 by Jacqueline Jules

Baby Arianna at Tanya’s Toyland had straight black bangs, plump red lips, and lifelike lashes so long they tickled my cheeks testing her soft hug in the store. And I wanted her to be in that box Mommy placed on the table wrapped in balloon paper beside the rose-topped cake. Never mind that the box […]

Posted on Dec 7, 2015Dec 27, 2015 by Macey Lavoie

When I’m not hunting in bookstores for the newest books to read, I’m searching for the latest fashion trends to fit my wardrobe.

The Earrings by Kait Burrier

Posted on Dec 26, 2014Aug 4, 2015 by Germ Magazine guest author

I knew what to say when the kids in school asked, If you were stuck on a desert island with just one thing? I cupped the small treasure in my hands: a pair of Chanel earrings. Mine. I’d sit pretty on a piece of driftwood in the open sea: Composed. Classy. My face, sunlit by […]

Presents of Pajamas by L. N. Holmes

Posted on Dec 23, 2014Jan 2, 2017 by L. N. Holmes

Mom hands me a wrapped package and unsuccessfully tries to suppress a smile. String lights on the Christmas tree in the living room flash red, green, and blue patches of color across the snowflake images printed on the paper. The package is malleable and contracts under the pressure of my fingers. My sister is peeling […]
