Fluff Piece
“That’s why I quit politics,” a teen says into his cellphone, juuling with his free hand.
Any Day Can Be Thanksgiving

The Watcher
“His face was haggard, scattered with gray stubble and damp with sweat. In the air between them was the musky odor of bourbon. “I am weary with my moaning,” he moaned. “All night I make my bed swim.” He looked at her, and even as she looked away, Kate was sure his gaze was lingering on her breasts.”
The winners of the 2026 Breakout Prize are Nico Amador in poetry, selected by Cynthia Cruz, and Imogen Osborne in prose, selected by Alexandra Kleeman.
