#055 – "Electric Cemetery" by Chris Scott (@iamchrisscott.bsky.social)

The most patriotic thing you can do today is read my new story for Keep Planning 🇺🇸🦅

hey @iamchrisscott.bsky.social — your story in keep planning RULES

Have written v little this year, so it’s such a boost and thrill to see my lil poem on this list. so so grateful to @burialmagazine.bsky.social!

bluesky. i am emceeing this, i have been charged with steering this astonishing conglomeration of writers on the evening of august 14th at stories books + cafe. come see me piss a bunch of people off + really awesome writers [the goat claire hopple coming from out of town for this!!!!!!!!!!!]

this was really cool and i have been told i did a good job :)

yeah i forgot to look at this but you should cruise by yayyyy

out now in Keep Planning, new fiction from returning contributor Eric Angal, a story about a man going on a date, and a tour de force rendering of obsessive-compulsive consciousness. Eric told me he thought there was "something ugly" about this piece – i agree. do give it a read

not that bluesky gives a shit. but neocities is down; thus, burial mag is down.

ty to @burialmagazine.bsky.social for publishing the smallest poem I've put out all by its lonesome, not one of those minimalist things, there's just a bit more to mine, not too much more but just a bit more to this very small poem burialmagazine.neocities.org/mostlygoodnews

One of mine in @burialmagazine.bsky.social #smallpoemsunday @tomsnarsky.bsky.social

today in burial: i can’t quite believe it, but @saintsoftness.bsky.social is here to dazzle us with ‘no second burial,’ an exegesis of annotations on thomas browne’s ‘hydriotaphia, urn burial’—but really so much more, you’ll see—don’t you dare miss it! burialmagazine.neocities.org/nosecondburial

!!!

Delighted to be back in @hexliterary.bsky.social!!

they are saying @ezhang77.bsky.social hex x burial is the hottest ticket in town today

Many thanks to @burialmagazine.bsky.social for giving this poem a home!

today in burial: a precise knife-cut of a poem from a writer i’ve admired for quite some time, this is ‘today i won’t say goodbye’ by @ezhang77.bsky.social —every word here is charged, every enjambment almost painful. don’t you dare miss it! burialmagazine.neocities.org/todayiwontsa...

My book This World Will Never Run Out of Strangers came into the world six months ago today. If you've bought the book, read it, reviewed it, thought about buying it, or even just liked, shared, or laughed at/cheered for a post about it, you have my eternal and undying gratitude.

My longest story to date is up—a great big architectural fantasy, just like you wanted! Give it a looksee if you will. I’m real proud of it www.picciolettabarca.com/posts/rosefi...

i am 31 years old and banned from the entire raising cane’s chain. maybe if they ever start franchising i’ll slip through the cracks and get back in there but so far they’ve been really serious about the ban.

reading w/ Amelia Gray & @dtrobbins.bsky.social in LA on Friday!

"Here I am with my clown face on and hacking away at this bloody corpse & immediately you’re making assumptions." In my mind this is about the power of art to heal. Thanks to @burialmagazine.bsky.social who kindly overlooked their conscience & published it burialmagazine.neocities.org/clownface

What if Ed Gein & John Wayne Gacy had a son who was a clown/pig farmer who hosted local middle school field trips to educate children about ethical pig farming practices? (Shout out to the kind & brilliant @burialmagazine.bsky.social for publishing this baby) burialmagazine.neocities.org/clownface

“The restaurant was empty except for these two, a guy with nine fingers and a girl with the tenth in her purse.” who had the borscht? the whale? the last cod fritter? @neonpajamas.bsky.social via @burialmagazine.bsky.social burialmagazine.neocities.org/thetwo

Excited to announce my newest mini chapbook is now available! “My Little Sister” is a bit of a whimsical meditation on siblinghood. Thanks to @robmclennan.bsky.social for bringing it together!

heyo everyone. as zh said, I am not often on this site, but I wanted to share out this VERY PERSONAL essay that I spent a lot of last year noodling on. would be honored if you gave it a read. thank you a million times to the incredible @burialmagazine.bsky.social for giving this piece a home :)

me n @gant.foo don’t seem to use bluesky much—but i’d be bereft not to recommend his personal narrative, new today in burial mag. it’s about his faith journey and and disillusion with the lds church. it is fucking beautiful. please read it burialmagazine.neocities.org/asunshinesdown

Before tomorrow’s new edition on the website, help yourselves to a pack of gummies and give a read to this wild ride of a story by our returning contributor aka counterfeit gummy reviewer Z.H. Gill (@burialmagazine.bsky.social), “Adventurers,” published in X-R-A-Y. xraylitmag.com/adventurers-...

"We’re in Montego Bay, Jamaica, investigating the White Witch of Rose Hall. You sold Johnny Cash his house. He felt the spirits there" Love the randomness of the sentence-to-sentence connections in this prose poem in @bulbregion.bsky.social from @burialmagazine.bsky.social

“It is believed / her husbands are buried under the palm trees of hole five of the golf course. She / cast a deadly spell. They destroyed every portrait of her.” 👢 The goat Z.H. Gill (@burialmagazine.bsky.social) returns to The Bulb Region today with two ghost poems. bulbregion.com/Ghost-Poems-...

i got a pretty weird pretty short story up in eulogy press’s anniversary issue. it’s called ‘the greatest city in the world.’ eulogy.press#greatest-cit...

I wantonly disobeyed @burialmagazine.bsky.social’s submission guidelines (no weird formats) but I want to thank the great ZH for 1) not holding that against me and 2) finding a way to make an erasure work on the site that turned out really cool burialmagazine.neocities.org/philspectorr...
