It’s the wistful imagining of what could have been. The affection for someone you nearly met. The bittersweet pang of an event half-remembered.
Send your most non-stalgic stories, works about real life—with fictional garnish. Give the adventure you could have had, or the love story you should have pursued. Or tell them about your high school reunion, but add an extra-dimensional imp only you can see. Whatever inspires you, grow a great story from a personal experience or observation.
This is not nonfiction. It’s non-stalgia.
