From the Editors
Today is Every Day Fiction’s third birthday.
Back in 2007, when we first launched EDF, our grand long-term goal was to make it to our third birthday. Given that the longevity of fledgling magazines is measured for the most part in months rather than years, that seemed impossibly far off — a good moon to shoot for, but it hardly seemed real at the time. Today we are standing on that moon and taking aim at the stars.
So please, wherever you are in the world, if you’ve been along for the ride from the beginning or if you’re only just joining us now, eat some cake for us today and raise your glass to celebrate all that we’ve achieved so far — together, because we would be nowhere without our readers, writers, commenters and friends — with this toast: “Three years is only the beginning.”
And now, here are the stories to begin our fourth year…
