This book holds writings that began as prompt responses in a community of writers I am honored to call home. They share a common thread - choice, consequence, and what it means to stand at the edge of something and decide. These are short pieces. The messages beneath them are not. Not every battle is fought in realms of angels and demons. Some are fought at kitchen tables, on broken paths, at the edge of worlds we didn't choose to enter. This is a collection of those moments - and the choices that changed them.
