My story Missoula Night Hikes has been published at Flashes In the Dark as part of Lori’s lycanthropy contest. Missoula is my hometown’s sister city, but we don’t have wolves here and they figure in the story (well, wolves aren’t really around Missoula so much, but they might wander down from that other country north of the US whose name escapes me). It was fun to write, trying to build tension and hint at werewolves. There are some awesome entries in the contest, all definitely worth checking out.
Missoula Night Hikes – new werewolf story on Flashes In The Dark
You definitely built tension and I hadn’t realized this, but you never actually said the werewolf word did you? Clever. I liked the povs.
Thanks Jodi, glad you noticed that – I did want to keep the word out, but still have it be clear. Multiple POVs feel like a lot to ask of flash, so I’m pleased you think it works.
