In case you haven't heard, my girlfriends and I have declared the summer of 2012 as the best summer ever. The best way to document said 'best summer ever' is with a good ol' disposable camera.

Christa B. Allen

Christine Tsai
The problem is once you've written the opening paragraph and worked out how the rest of the story will go in your head, there's nothing in it for you.

Colm Toibin
