The Edge of Propinquity - Photo

Propinquity - 1: nearness of blood: Kinship. 2: nearness in place or time: Proximity.

The Edge of Propinquity is a series of short stories from four different authors in four different universes exploring the world that lurks just beneath the surface of everyday life. It is the world of the unexplained, supernatural, magic, horror, duty, responsibility, black humor, conspiracy, unknown heritage and power. This semiprozine is updated on the 15th of every month.


Issue 56: August, 2010


Four Visitors - Trinity, Part Two - by Rick Silva
Nick Lorem and Tina Cronin search for their missing friends amidst a bizarre encounter with otherworldly forces. As the third visitor arrives on the scene, Nick and Tina must make a decision to face the unknown and help guide a lost soul home.


Solstice - Summer, Part Five - by Ivan Ewert
The God of War begins his preparations for Solstice; to bring the reborn gods and beasts to heel at his stern command. Alone and adrift, he trains body and mind for what he is certain must be done...for that which will sow the roots of chaos, and bring inevitable order to the madness which has revealed itself to him.


Mnemosyne - Are You Going to Scarborough Fair? - by Nick Bergeron
We finally have a good opportunity for conversation, and our Hero bails out and runs.  He didn't want to be late for his date.  Well, that's fine, that's understandable.  But I'm not going to let him off the hook that easily.  We are going to have a little talk, just the two of us, and no one is going to stand in my way.


Sparrow Hill Road - Dead Man's Curve - by Seanan McGuire
What started as an amusing evening has the potential to turn deadly for everyone involved as Rose Marshall finds herself caught up with a group of ghost-hunters stalking a very familiar urban legend...her own.


Guest Author - The Last Call by R. A. Keenan
Rene's perfectly ordered life is interrupted by an early morning phone call that seems to make no sense. However, later in the day when Rene hears the caller's voice again and they meet, things go from odd to horrible in a matter of seconds. When the early morning calls continue and the bodies pile up, Rene wonders if he will survive this unwelcome new duty in his life.



Have you ever looked over the edge and seen something looking back at you?
