"Three-Minute Fiction" Archive

WNIJ launched it's first "Three-Minute Fiction" contest in September, 2015 with a prompt issued by award-winning author, GK Wuori:

I'm a curious person. No, I'm a nosey person. Nooo. I'm a snoop, and it's finally gotten me into trouble.
We received more than 100 submissions. Wuori, a Pushcart Prize-winner, selected five authors and we invited them to our studios to record their stories. Wuori then selected another five authors for honorable mentions, and we include their readings in this archive.

We welcome your comments to these stories. And if you talk about this series on social media, please use #WNIJReadWithME.

WNIJ's "Three-Minute Fiction" was inspired by an NPR contest of the same name.
