Drawers & Booths         by Ara 13

While a Marine Corps corporal acts as a liaison between an island nation and the U.S. Army, his
story is hijacked by a displaced narrator seeking a suspected criminal. The disruption causes the
characters to become aware of their role in a novel, even rebelling against the author's intent, in
this layered, metafictional journey; poignant, hilarious, and utterly unique.
and Mozart Was Taught         by Ara 13

Little Emily is picked on, constantly. Will events break her or forge an empathetic adult? Jean feels
powerless to help her student. Joe is rutted to his parental obligations. Multiple characters are
tossed into the environmental boiler in this fictional study of genetic propensity and the complexities
of personality. Ara 13 once again blend cleverness and humor to create memorable characters
while weighing in on several poignant themes, not least of which is the pursuit of happiness.
Fiction: a novel         by Ara 13

Father Daniel journeys deep into the harsh forest with romantic notions of converting the fierce
Oquanato cannibals to Christianity, but his heroic sense of mission clashes with the farcical antics
of sophisticated savages, whose beliefs originate from a peculiar source, a source that rattles
Daniel into an introspective, yet dubious narrative.
