Excerpt of Number 10 by Nichole McGill (Canada)

"I can still see them all. I want them to see me. I want them to look at me. See me go. See me transform I wanna say, I feel like God now. I wanna say, I wish I were on the roof again, still playing that edge, still feeling electric 'coz right now the buzz is dying and the light is building to a crest that's gonna turn to cold blackness after the final light goes out."

Nicole McGill: Author of 13 Cautionary Tales (Gutter Press, 2001), a collection of short stories. Other stories, scripts and poems by her have been published in Blood & Aphorisms, Algonquin Roundtable Review, Queen Street Quarterly and Subterran.
