A Funeral in Turkey On the fifth anniversary of the tragic death of Princess Diana, English novelist Ian Lumley shares with us the effect that the news of her death had on his family as they were vacationing in Turkey.
 Stories from the Mountains of the Moon Road signs in the Queen Elizabeth National Park proclaim that "Elephants have right of way," but they all tend to lean over at a crazy angle. British poet and author Cecile Hare lived in the "Mountains of the Moon" region of Uganda and she tells us, among other things, why those elephant crossing signs lean.
 The Women of Castle Thunder Priscilla Rhoades is a southerner by way of California, but we won't hold that against her. In this supremely well-researched article, she examines the plight of the bold (and some not-so-bold) women of the Confederate prison called Castle Thunder.
The Hill of the Blue Goose In August's poetry feature, we see another side of frequent contributor Tom Sheehan's abilities, and we're happy to present this moving poem to you.

 God's Canyon Author/publisher Kenneth Crist has a light touch with his fictional characters that makes him a favorite of ours. In this supernatural fantasy, he's at his best. Enjoy.
Dancing the Winter Away This original short story by David Kirkland is about a man who likes to sit at his apartment window and scan the crowd with the telescopic sight of his rifle. It's also about the woman in the apartment building across the street who will do almost anything to make him stop.
 In a Heart Unique Why do women, and especially black women, have greater rates of cardiac disease and sudden death than men? That's the question that health feature writer Binkley addresses in this article, and we think it's material that cannot be overemphasized. Read this not only to learn the signs and symptoms of a heart attack, but also to learn about how the medical system in the U.S. fails to properly educate and inform half of the American population.
