‘You may fear the necessity of destruction, but sometimes forests need to burn, cornfields need to burn, our bodies need to burn into vapor like a pot left boiling.’ A scorcher from @nancystohlman in the new issue of Ghost Parachute ⚡️

‘Shut your waves up, shut your waves up and leave me alone; I just came here to light a cigarette and moon-breathe, not to talk about the past.’ Devastating new flash from Nora Nadjarian in Fractured Lit; love how the sea becomes a character… 🌊

‘She wants to stare into Jimmy Taylor’s dark blue dark blues and see something other than the kind of midnight that doesn’t even have a fleck of the moon.’ So much yearning in this brilliant new francinewitte flash in Centaur Lit 👁️ centaurlit.com/something-othe…

"When she came into my life, I didn’t like myself much. But she pulled on my yarn-heart, until all the knots came undone" James Montgomery in ELJ Editions ❤️💔❤️ emergeliteraryjournal.com/artemis/

I very rarely write CNF. But when Artemis died, I couldn’t find a lot of flash that captured the loss of a much-loved pet. It felt important to me to try and put that feeling into words. Thanks for publishing this, ELJ Editions ❤️🐈 emergeliteraryjournal.com/artemis/
