>Binnacle Ultra-short Contest Results

>The results are in and . . . I didn’t win. I was a finalist, though, which is something, and better yet my ultra-short story (all 86 words), “Tornado Weather,” will be published in The Binnacle this fall. Here’s a list of the finalists. Congratulations to the Grand Prize Winner, Ginger Hamilton Caudill!
