Ooligan Press is proud to announce the winners of our 2008 short story
contest. The theme: “After Dark.”

The winners are, in no particular order:

"Movement to Contact” by Sean Davis
A citizen-soldier engages dark places in Iraq and in himself.

"Swamp Woman” by Rebecca English
Growing up in the South can be all kinds of crazy – especially if you’re
with your boyfriend at a sweaty Southern carnival, surrounded by snakes.
But Florida has no fear!

“Thomas” by Chelsea Harlan
Sometimes we don’t realize the implications of a situation – what really
happened versus what we think happened. Nathan Finch witnesses a
life-altering event that continues to haunt him, with unexpected
consequences.

“You Got the Silver” by Amanda Johnson
In the woods, after dark, a man beside her, her head is full of neon
visions. Where does illusion end and reality begin?
