Crossroads

Crossroads. An intersection. A junction. A parting of ways. A turning point. A new direction. A decision to be made.

We asked entrants in the 2016 Birdcatcher Books Short Story Competition to write a story on the theme Crossroads: this anthology contains the best entries from that competition. Twenty-five writers ranging in age from teens to retirees, and from those for whom this is their first published work to widely published authors come to the crossroads, each with his or her own perspective.
