A branch grazes your cheek as it falls from overhead. You ignore a call and never receive the apology that won't be offered again. Perhaps against your judgment, you close your ears to a plaintively told story that would have cost you everything to believe. You turn down one path, leaving another to fall into shadow behind you, closed forever.The world is full of stories about things that happen to us, but sometimes the more alluring story is hidden in the things that don't. In this sixth anthology from the Oslo Writers League, we explore those moments when what might have been slips-or is cast-from our hands, for better or worse.For the first time, we welcome writers from both within the Oslo Writers League and from around the world to contribute their stories, memoirs, poems and explorations of worlds unknown.Contributing authors are: Karen Havelin, GKS Waller, Maddie Lama Sjåtil, Jennifer Brown, André Sevenius Nilsen, Mia Kirsi Stageberg, Chris Huby, A.R.
