Welcome to the premiere issue of Green Mountain Writers Literary Review.


Here are seven great stories generated by our Green Mountain Writers at the flip of a card…

It is what you make of it, your world. But is it really all you’ve got? Your hands representing creativity, your feet representing mobility, your senses like windows to all that surrounds you. Touch is the panorama, your skin the…

“You think you see two?” I sputtered, baffled. “Two what?” The wand, bathed in the warmed gel, glided across my massive, otherworldly belly, searching, probing. I had been here so often before, this was now starting to seem like some…

I am the Tarot’s mythical Super Star. I am the twinkle in men’s eyes. I have delighted you in dance, opera, and theater; when I dance, I fly and need not touch the ground. The angels envy me because my…

After the chaos of the past year when so much of the world became a desert of drought, destoying vast tracts of farmlands, then burning trees and animals. Rain should be welcome, but it slides away into floods. A jungle…

There is no judgmental review process other than that of the individual writers themselves. I believe we exist to empower each other.
