My short story White Elephant is one of the featured pieces in this awesome lit mag!

The editors sent a lovely note along with my contributor copy noting that over 900 submissions had been received, so I felt very honoured that my story was chosen.

It takes place in a marriage counsellor's office.

Toronto Journal said that while they laughed at the opening lines, it soon became apparent there was a lot more to the story, and loved how "the reader's first impressions are completely overturned by the end."
