 Sheila Mengert’s best stories of the year...  Starting with the title itself, transgender author and activist, Sheila Mengert, sets the tone for the collection’s diverse set of characters, each balanced along the precarious edge where fate and personality combine to forge a destiny. With what now seems like uncanny foresight, Mengert conveys the mood of anxiety and perplexity that accompany the tremors that rumble just beneath the surface of daily life when great events are about to take place... like the unprecedented year that followed 2019.Auguries of Desolation collects all twelve stories written by Sheila Mengert for Prompt: The First Generation plus an extensive interview and a thirteenth bonus story written in 2020. Prompt collected nine diverse storytellers-a spectrum of style, ideology, politics, race, sexuality, and religion. For one year, authors were sent a monthly writing prompt, creating flashpoints to craft their best work. Explore Prompt Winter, Prompt Spring, Prompt Summer, Prompt Autumn, and The Prompt Guidebook to discover their original stories.
