This deciduous forest contained a wide variety of tree species such as sugar maple, American beech, red…

I had been running through the woods, for what seemed like forever. “TAKE COVER” my friend Brendan shouted. I quickly slid behind a tree to get out of the line of fire. The enemies had been closing in. POP!POP!POP! was all I heard as I was hiding behind this large tree. At this rate I was done for; that was until we started to fight back. The remaining pack and I decided to go in small groups to try to pick them off one by one. We moved forward in dead silence, and all I could hear was…
world. When I looked at his pictures, I felt like I was standing right next to him as he was taking the picture. “Path in the Woods,” reminded me of camping with my family when I was a young girl. My mother would take us for long walks in the woods. I remember how quiet everything was and thinking we were the first ones to ever be on the path.

This is how new genres, such as American fabulism, are born, coming out of comparable stories like “The Man in the Woods” by Shirley Jackson and “The Summer People” by Kelly Link. There are many distinguishable features belonging to fabulist stories, so many that not all of them could be named, and Jackson and Link incorporate just a few. Both use realism…
