Flashnano 2023: Day 13–Lucky 13!

Day 13: You find yourself in an abandoned shopping mall from the 1980s…

…leisurely making your way through the ruins when you begin to hear Muzak. As you near the sound, you realize there is one store still open, though you are unclear how it could possibly be open for business. “We’ve been waiting for you,” a cheerful sales lady says as she waves you over. “Quickly now!” she says, bustling you into the store, “the ritual is about to begin!” What happens next?

Today’s celebrity prompt comes from my favorite visionary and creative powerhouse: Selah Saterstrom!

*Selah Saterstrom is originally from the south. She is the author of five books: Rancher, Ideal Suggestions: Essays in Divinatory Poetics, Slab, The Meat and Spirit Plan, and The Pink Institution (one of my favorites). Her work has twice been nominated for the Believer Book Award.
