Fiction Issue - TJ must be proud

Fiction Issue - TJ must be proud

From gun-toting grannies to death and divorce to a family who can't say "I love you," this year's winning stories pack a wallop. And there's a strange coincidence as well: the first and second place winners are tour guides at TJ's Monticello, while our third place winner attends his university. We had no idea our celebrity ghost judge had so much pull!
