A granddaughter returns to her grandmother’s mountain cabin and discovers the forest remembers what the living forget. A quiet Appalachian story about loss, inheritance, and the small magic that lingers after we’re gone. A favorite at Johnson City Zine Fest 9.
When a granddaughter returns to her late grandmother’s mountain cabin, she means only to box up a lifetime of keepsakes. But as the days pass, small disturbances begin to thread through the quiet rooms: a flash of orange in the yard, a missing ribbon, a feather on the sill. The forest around the cabin seems to remember things she has forgotten—and to want something in return.
Mamaw’s Stories is a 12-page Appalachian short story chapbook about inheritance, grief, and the porous line between the natural and the supernatural. The narrator’s search through her grandmother’s belongings becomes a reckoning with family memory, the barter between human and animal, and the kind of story that never really ends.
Printed with hand-drawn illustrations and soft color, this compact edition from Studio Second Street is both ghost tale and love story: a reminder that what we leave behind still listens for us.
