NO KINGS

Loooove this poem by Mai Hindawi in @fastfleshlit.bsky.social

We had so much fun reading the submissions for our Experimenting with Form issue! Here it is in all its glory, featuring Marek Danielewski, Mai Hindawi, Lukas Wood, Jonathan McLelland, and JI Kleinberg. fastflesh.net/issue-10

our youngest editor, but by far our most discerning. Miles is looking for work that truly surprises him. he wants to read something he’s never read before.

Jack’s essay, “We Feral Few,” is out now in Passengers! @jackmaes.bsky.social www.passengersjournal.com/volume-5-issue-4-prose/#maes

#callforsubmissions you have nine more hours to send us work for issue 10 (Experimental Forms)! send this to your weirdest friends! #flashfiction #cnf #poetry #hybrid #art

so, question for other writerly nerds home thinking on a friday night: what do you think of when you think of experimental form? any favorite stories, essays, books, or journals come to mind? ✍️💙📚

reading through our submissions, I keep coming back to the question “is this experimental?” there’s a lot of what I’d consider experimental content but not experimental form.

we promise to be extra lazy to balance things out

love to wake up, stretch, and then shape my human form around the devils rectangle so i can read some of the worst words crafted on the lords internet

the reason for the season (our editors’ group chat)

Started a starter pack!

reskeet w/ controversial book takes 💙📚 the movies based on Stephen King’s books are so much better than his actual books The Shining and Misery in particular great premises but goddamn he needed an editor

reskeet w/ controversial book takes 💙📚 my own: - Hemingway is boring as fuck - Julia by Sandra Newman was infinitely better than 1984

reskeet w/ controversial book takes 💙📚 just came across 1-star reviews of Frankenstein in an AP Lit group, including “I threw it out my window,” “I’d put this alongside other amateur horror authors like Stephen King” and “I’d rather read the Berenstain Bears” the Berenstain motherfucking bears

too pretty, too hot, too smart. the ideas are endless

So we are here and we want you to know that we are returning in 2025 starting with the 2024 Advent Calendar. We know you need it: www.essaydaily.org/p/the-essay-...
