OASIS Journal 2008 is the seventh consecutive annual anthology of short fiction, short non-fiction, and poetry by writers over fifty. Produced in coordination with The OASIS Institute, a national non-profit organization that promotes ongoing education for seniors, OASIS Journal showcases the work of older writers nationwide, who have so much to contribute to our literary legacy, but are often overlooked because of their age. The authors included herein come from widely varied backgrounds, and their stories are both entertaining and compelling in their passion, humor, and diversity.
