The stories in this issue are by turns surreal, scary, funny, sad, puzzling, and sweet—just like love.

In “Raritan, New Jersey. 2012,” Jason Macias takes us galloping through equine dreams. Suzanne Samples introduces us to some mysterious (and slightly creepy) “Things That Float.” Next up is a thoughtful and intriguing flash piece by Daniel Thompson, “My Horns Hurt.” Charlie Brown’s narrator gets “A Bad Case” of a surprisingly lively and entertaining venereal disease. Robert Lowell Russell’s “Path of Stones” examines a well-known fairy tale from the perspective of a marginalized character who must weave through many stories before finishing his own. And when you think about it, isn’t that what we all have to do?
