For my story, “Baking Into the Dark,” I drew on memories of moving with our fifth-, seventh-, and eighth grade children from my Oregon hometown to the capital of Denmark.

All went well for us in real life, but my mother-gene conjured up dangerous hazards waiting our kids in a country where the legal age for buying beer from a local store was fifteen.

In my story, sixteen-year-old Toby gives his mother plenty to worry about as he takes the part of a medieval baker during an alcohol-fueled weekend role-playing event in a forest north of Copenhagen.

This fun-packed issue includes eight more short stories and one essay, all waiting to entertain you.
