KN Magazine: Short Stories
The Corner Booth
A man waits in a rundown diner for the woman he once loved, their shared past flickering between memory and ruin as they sign the papers that will end their marriage. In the sticky booth where everything began, he confronts love, loss, and the cracks—literal and emotional—that have slowly spread between them.
Avalanche
When a backcountry ski trip turns deadly, one man must fight the mountain—and his own limits—to survive. After an avalanche buries his fiancée’s father, Blake faces impossible choices in the frozen Colorado wilderness. Avalanche is a taut, heart-wrenching story of endurance, guilt, and love pushed to its breaking point.
Loretta Wakes Up
In Loretta Wakes Up, Molly Wilcox delivers a raw, redemptive story about a mother haunted by her past and a daughter who turned pain into art. Set against the shimmering backdrop of early 2000s Los Angeles, this haunting excerpt from Wilcox’s upcoming novel Off the Record explores guilt, love, and the thin line between redemption and ruin.
Accidents Will Happen
When three suburban widows discover freedom—and perhaps satisfaction—in a series of “accidental” deaths, dark humor meets moral ambiguity in Ken Pisani’s Accidents Will Happen. A sharply written tale of revenge, friendship, and fate where every accident might just be planned.
