Set in late 2008, "Electricland" satirically describes a large scale terrorist operation that goes wrong and the damage control put into effect in Los Angeles. The terrorist cell of seven brilliant middle aged women, known as the Seven Sirens, use hackers and gamers in the massively multiplayer online role-playing game online game called "Electricland" to wreak havoc in and terrorize secure networks. The hackers and gamers think they're playing a game while they're really being played by the Seven Sirens. Until one of the hackers gets cocky and all hell breaks loose.

Storylandia 3, The Wapshott Journal of Fiction is pleased to present Dead Girl, Live Boy, a novella by Michelle Brooks. Dead Girl, Live Boy is an unflinching view of a haunted family landscape scattered with undetonated landmines that threaten the characters' fragile existences. Set in a crumbling Detroit as the millennium approaches, Dead Girl, Live Boy calls to mind the works of Hubert Selby Jr. and an urban Tennessee Williams. Brooks creates a darkly comic and claustrophobic world that warrants attention. Both despairing and hopeful, her novella succeeds as both a survivor's story and a cautionary tale.
