"Lara eats chocolate cake again when the man she loves brings it to her after his wife has gone into town to run errands." @kellypedro.bsky.social in @tahomareview.bsky.social tahomaliteraryreview.com/selections/p...

"I’d been working at W__ Corp for about two years when I first learned that time flickered in and out in the back corner of the office basement." A great one by Emily Zasada in The Jabberwock Review www.jabberwockreview.org/issue-45-2-w...

"I gave myself a jolt (picture: hair dryer, sink of water, pre-coffee brain fog) and when I came to, the Lord Jesus Christ Himself had roosted on my sofa." Get into this really funny one by @jfsullivan4th.bsky.social in @reedmagazine.bsky.social www.reedmag.org/fiction-sacr...

"We dressed slowly—to rush would be to not take time, to not take care, and that would open us up for long looks." Fantastic piece by Lydia Mathis in @southeastreview.bsky.social www.southeastreview.org/single-post/...

"Just imagine: a hairy little guy who looks embarrassed to be spotted in the world has caused so much historic fuss." A truly delightful piece by @janstinchcomb.bsky.social in Monkeybicycle monkeybicycle.net/little-devil/

". . .but if I say, “Yes, we’re going down in the dose permanently, I hope,” if I say, “So far we’re doing pretty well,” if I say anything at all, we’ll be at the hospital in twenty-four hours." Swallow by @writesloud.bsky.social in @xraylitmag.bsky.social xraylitmag.com/swallow-by-h...

This is such a fun seasonal listen from @feministbookclub.bsky.social about horror books featuring @sadiehartmann.bsky.social !

Cheeky, wonderful prose piece up today. Enjoy "Unexplained Phenomena of Invisible Women" by @thehagsoup.bsky.social Read it on our site: dishsoap-quarterly.com/2-25-25/unex...

I did to not know that Heathcliff is supposed to be a racialized other in Wuthering Heights! I would've read it a lot sooner if I knew we were delving into all this race and class stuff. So . . . why do we have Jacob Elordi playing him in the Emerald Fennell adaptation?

I'm finally getting around to reading Wuthering Heights because I want to weigh in on the new adaptation. Emerald Fennell's other films bothered me, particularly given her (very) wealthy background. Am I just now reading Wuthering Heights because I'm being a bit of a hater? Maybe! And what of it?

Have a listen of this podcast about using your library as an act of resistance from @feministbookclub.bsky.social Loved hearing about one disabled person's experience of having book delivered to her house from her local library! Libraries are amazing, y'all! www.feministbookclub.com/accessible-r...

Thanks so much to @genrepunkmag.bsky.social for publishing this little weirdo! The idea for this piece came from when I had a boyfriend that I found to be condescending and a know-it-all. So, I started making up historical "facts" to tell him. Apologies for my contribution to the misinformation age
