Hidden World: A Lower Columbia County Writers Anthology (eBook)

Your neighbors have secrets. Extraordinary ones.

Seventeen writers from Columbia County, Oregon, reveal the hidden worlds living right next door?worlds tucked inside lighted fairy trees and buried beneath nondisclosure agreements that hide the impossible. Worlds hidden in the minds of artists and authors, fantasy realms and even in plain sight.

Hidden World gathers award-winning and multi-published authors alongside six debut voices from the St. Helens Writers Guild and the Scappoose Library Writing Group. These twenty-seven stories, poems, and essays range from whimsical flash fiction to haunting fantasy, from backyard surprises to insightful revelations.

Some will make you laugh. Others will linger in your mind long after you close the book. All of them prove that the most remarkable stories are being written in the most ordinary places?by the people who live just down the street.

Step inside. The extraordinary has been waiting next door all along.
