The Story of the Month is chosen from the Story of the Week winners announced from the past month.

The finalists for February were:

Not Yet by Rebecca Cuthbert
Gift From the Sea by Giulietta Nardone
A Child Overhears by Larina Warnock
Quiet Time by Chris Millis

The winner of the February 2022 Story of the Month, and the $10 prize, is…

A Child Overhears

Larina crafted a character and an affect that resonates all too painfully, hopefully inviting us to make a positive difference for real-life “characters” like these.
