Our lives are made up of stories, but not all stories are ones we want to have told. For whatever reason, in whatever way, for ill or for good, some stories are buried. Truths are hidden, things go unsaid, and secrets are kept ... or not, as the case may be! An old house reveals a dark family secret to a new generation. A military experiment works just a little too well. A gold ring found in the dirt holds the key to an unsolved mystery. An interrogation uncovers evidence of a crime long buried, but never forgotten. Join the writers of the Imaginative Fiction Writers Association on a journey through worlds both familiar and unknown as they explore how a story becomes a secret. To what lengths will someone go to keep their secret? And what happens when our deepest and darkest secrets are uncovered? These are The Stories We Hide.
