The email sat in Amelia’s inbox, glowing with a malevolent light. “Congratulations! Your essay, ‘Finding My Voice in the Choir,’ has been selected for publication…” She could barely read the rest. Her breath hitched. The blood thrummed in her ears, a furious, insistent pulse.

A coldness spread through her. She slammed her laptop shut, the metallic clang echoing in the sudden silence of her apartment. She wanted to scream, to shatter something, anything.
