Our Stories Recognized

Our Stories, the online lit journal run by alum Alexis Santi, has received a bit of recognition from two organizations - 1) the folks at One Story, as part of their "Save The Short Story" project, wrote up a nice little feature on their blog, and 2) the storySouth Million Writers Award, the judges of which nominated "These People I Know" by Alex Stephens for the award. In May, Jason Sanford, publisher and editor of storySouth, will post the top ten finalists out of the many nominations and open the award up for the public to vote. Other nominations include stories from online journals such as failbetter.com, Blackbird, Agni, The Mississippi Review, and StoryQuarterly, so Our Stories is in good company. Good work to Alexis and his staff.
