First Story:   “To Measure the Earth” by Jedediah BerrySpring 1890Roel got out of bed before the fireflies had quit their nighttime signaling. He took his hat from the bedpost, strapped on his wooden right leg, and went downstairs to stoke the fire. Netta had never been able to sleep through the thudding of her husband’s leg on the steps, and the steps creaked, each one. She threw the covers aside and went to the kitchen to make their breakfast of blood sausage and buckwheat cake. Jedediah Berry is the award-winning author of The Manual of Detection. His short stories have appeared in Conjunctions, Ninth Letter, Tor.com and Chicago Review, and in anthologies including Best New American Voices and Best American Fantasy. He teaches in the Written Arts Program at Bard College.  Visit http://thirdarchive.net/ for more details.Second story: “For the Love of Paul Bunyan” by Fritz SwansonShe was tender. Soft as a sand dune after a windstorm.  Back in the before days, she would wake up and stretch those  arms out across the sky, her left hand arched over Baffin Island, her right curled up under her jaw, her elbow casting a swaying shadow over the Jack Pine Forests of Saskatchewan.Fritz is a contributing editor at PRINT Magazine, the nation’s oldest graphic design magazine.
