The Globe Ghost Story Contest and Winner

Ghost Story Winner

In the last issue, Autumn 2012, of The Globe, we ran a creative writing contest which was to complete a ghost story that had been started by high school student Evan Seitz. From the many submissions we received, we chose Lillian Harding’s. Her submission was visceral and dramatic. It drew us in and left a lasting impression. Lillian wins a $25 gift certificate at Williams & Sons Country Store in Stockbridge, MA, generously donated by the store’s owner, Teresa O’Brient. Thanks to all the other contributors and congratulations, Lillian! [Read more…]
