I’m always stoked to have a story in the amazing Conjunctions. Check out Work & Days, Issue 82, which explores “the work people have done over [the] millennia to make ends meet—to provide food, shelter, even community,” which “constitutes a multifaceted portrait of the human species itself” (Bradford Morrow). My story “The Mothers” depicts a feminist art colony in the North Carolina mountains. There, a group of mothers contends with the supernatural talents their children have picked up from a pair of mysterious orphans who live in the woods.
