Hey #WritingCommunity! It's been a while. I'm teaching a webinar on submitting to lit mags. Has anything changed in the past 8 months while I've been focussed on other areas of my life? TIA!

Admire the nuance of mother/daughter & mother/son here, as well the promising ending and chance at redemption and growth: Read @rachellaverdiere.bsky.social in @okaydonkey.bsky.social tinyurl.com/4sbpxvhy

"Let’s say there’s no such thing as a happy ending. It’s a shock to see her, the unhappy sixteen-year-old girl, and realize she never imagined that you’d get so old or that you couldn’t go back to being that young." Beautiful writing by @jacqdoyle.bsky.social

#WritingCommunity ICYMI interview with Karen Kao up at @smokelong.bsky.social there is an extra layer of fear for me whenever a nonfiction piece of mine gets published .... Will people still like me? Will only the people who already know me get it? www.smokelong.com/interviews/s...

🦩 What a fantastic piece by @rachellaverdiere.bsky.social in @okaydonkey.bsky.social. I need a whole book of these characters immediately! 🦩

"—everything’s lined up since our first date at the Sparrow Café: his flamingo print shorts, the flamingo garter tattooed around my thigh; my hot pink converse, his black." I dig this #flashfiction by @rachellaverdiere.bsky.social in @okaydonkey.bsky.social 💙💙💙

"But my mouth waters, and I can’t breathe, so I close my eyes like you’d tell me to and list five people who love me: my cat Pooh-Bear, besties Catherine and Ev, Mom’s ghost. And Steve, of course." Love this @rachellaverdiere.bsky.social @okaydonkey.bsky.social #flashfiction #flashlit

“He is saving that one for my sister, Cookie, who sits on his lap. He only remembers me when he is angry or when I remind him of Mother. He has trouble loving her, too.” Terrific, tear-jerking story by @rachellaverdiere.bsky.social in @emergejournal.bsky.social about fathers and baby sisters

Well--stopped in at X for the first time in while....and found out @emergejournal.bsky.social nominated my flash fiction for a Pushcart! What a nice surprise. Congrats to all other nominees as well 💜 emergeliteraryjournal.com/ghost-baby/

@shotgunhoney.bsky.social makes good looking books, but they really out-did themselves with @meaganlucas.bsky.social’s Here in the Dark. I’ve read some of these stories, and I published one of them in @malarkeybooks.bsky.social’s It Came From the Swamp and can’t wait to dig in.

#CNF community (& writing community in general)! The wonderful, supportive @rachellaverdiere.bsky.social just joined us on BlueSky. I encourage you to fw her! Beyond her talent as a writer she regularly shares others' work in her Sunday newsletter. Web: www.rachellaverdiere.com Welcome, Rachel!!!
