I've been so inconsistent about posting for #FlashInTheFeed (mostly because I don't have Bluesky on my phone and don't look at screens after 9pm) but I stuck with it and didn't stop posting because I "broke my streak" or whatever and that feels like an accomplishment.

This 100-word flash "A Leviathan’s Love" by @matthollingsworth.com in Sudden Flash packs so much description into so few words: yoursuddenflash.blogspot.com/2026/04/a-le... #FlashInTheFeed

No darkness lasts forever. And even there, there are stars.

I love a mother-daughter narrative so today's #FlashInTheFeed is "Blackhearts" by @bsherm36.bsky.social in @fictivedream.bsky.social: There's so much tension, tiny details, and a desire to be understood in this piece: fictivedream.com/2025/02/04/b...

"Dad throws the pot of mac and cheese in the sink and turns on the tap, filling the pot until the macaroni floats to the top like an aquarium of dead goldfish." I love this messy family story by @kellypedro.bsky.social in @flashfrog.bsky.social: flash-frog.com/2026/04/13/p... #FlashInTheFeed

"i’d learn how this world could crack you open with ache and all at once make you new. which is to say he saw what i didn’t yet know. that i was pretending. like a prophecy, the path unfolding before i was ready to walk. still i fought it."

We are all the woman in "Gender study; gestalt" by @ktherr.bsky.social "Love me says the woman, talking to the wall. Love me says the wall, turning to mist." Winner of the @smokelong.bsky.social Grand Micro Contest 2025: www.smokelong.com/stories/gend... #FlashInTheFeed

I have far too many books after AWP but I'm going to order another one...

It’s my pub day!! I appreciate the support of this literary community. Get your copy today! Thank you to AV @cowboyjamboree.bsky.social!

Today's #FlashInTheFeed is from my @thirtywestph.com chapbook cohort mate @tomsnarsky.bsky.social in @havehashad.com Great use of repetition (even if I wish this wasn't so relevant rn) www.havehashad.com/hadposts/hey...

Welkin me up!

Today's #FlashInTheFeed is "Lone Shooter" by one of my favorite writers @sagetyrtle.bsky.social in @flashfrog.bsky.social If you want to feel rage along with a character, read this one: flash-frog.com/2026/04/06/l... "He looks like an ad for milk."

Today's #FlashInTheFeed is "Animal Therapy" by Nora Esme Wagner in @smokelong.bsky.social. A beautifully written, thoughtful portrayal of eating disorder recovery and a great use of the first person plural: www.smokelong.com/stories/anim...

Hello. I have a new story up at Ghost Parachute. Thanks, @brettpribble.bsky.social, for giving my work space in this terrific issue!

Spotlighting @lmariharris.bsky.social's "Baby" in Ghost Parachute today. There's something so desperate and sinister and dare I say sympathetic about this narrator: ghostparachute.com/issue/may-20... #FlashInTheFeed

Had to delete the previous post, there was a misspelling, OMG, right! 🫣 Today was a double pub day for me. First, a micro in Ghost Parachute, then flash CNF in @doesithavepockets.bsky.social 🥰 Gratitude is owed to @smokelong.bsky.social workshop and all the writers who helped me shape this story.

I love a good ghost story so today's #FlashInTheFeed is "Classified Ad for a Ghost" in @fracturedlit.bsky.social by @marioaliberto3.bsky.social A poignant exploration of grief: fracturedlit.com/classified-a...

@vestalreview.bsky.social spotlighted "The Groom" by Jackie Sabbagh in an interview with @heyflashvillage.bsky.social so obviously that's today's #FlashInTheFeed You'll have to go read this one-sentence story about the desire for connection yourself: www.vestalreview.net/the-groom

Time is fake so this counts as yesterday's #FlashInTheFeed post!! Follow along as I share one flash piece each day for the month of April!!!!!

I don't read nearly enough flash fiction so I decided for the month of April that I'm going to keep going with #FlashInTheFeed and share a piece each day for accountability. Today's piece is "Shelf Life" by Rowan Tate in @splitlipthemag.bsky.social: splitlipthemag.com/flash/0226/r...

My first ever fiction publication went live on the @havehashad.com site five years ago today! The piece got a crazy amount of likes and reshares on a certain social media website that is no longer fun! One of my favorite authors shared it! www.havehashad.com/hadposts/how...

I'm getting married in TWO DAYS 👰👰🏿 and it would mean a lot to me to have the giveaway for my upcoming book promoted more (twenty copies up for grabs! I don't want to worry about social media this weekend!) so good people of Bluesky, please do your thing and repost this like mad.

Yayyyyyyy

"AU:the night your husband proposed" by @vicnogaywrites.bsky.social in @fracturedlit.bsky.social is a haunting micro about a relationship. It'll live in rent free in my head so now it has to live in yours too: fracturedlit.com/au-the-night... #FlashInTheFeed @smokelong.bsky.social

Double posting for #FlashInTheFeed because I forget yesterday! So much teen angst and nostalgia in this one and it's very clear why it was a Grand Micro contest finalist for @SmokeLong: www.smokelong.com/stories/unli...

Every line of "Grass Cuts" by @j4prez.bsky.social is beautiful and heartbreaking at once! Read it here: freeflashfiction.com/fiction/gras... #FlashInTheFeed

Messy families! Mom's Loser Boyfriend! Beach! Birds! Teenage Girl Feelings! New fiction up at @jmwwjournal.bsky.social: jmwwblog.wordpress.com/2026/03/18/f... Thanks @thorntonforreal.bsky.social for the thoughtful edits!

“I take out the trash and spot my mother with her nose nuzzled into her boyfriend’s neck. He sticks his tongue out at me. I flip him the bird.’ Read “Old Enough to Know” by @christinaltudor.bsky.social in @jmwwjournal.bsky.social today!

Flash Fiction: Old Enough to Know by Christina Tudor "You're gonna be such a great mom someday," Aunt Janie says while I clean up after dinner. A spray bottle in one hand and a rag in the other. I trace circles across the mahogany dining table that get wider and wider.

After many tries, I'm thrilled to share that my story about a mother whose child turns to stone has been selected for the 2026 anthology! Thank you @karjon.bsky.social and @sharontelfer.bsky.social! Thrilled to be included in this lineup with so many flash writers I admire!

Thrilled to be part of the amazing NFFD anthology with my story about trolls under bridges!! 🥳 🧌 🐐 Thanks so much to the editors, looks like a fantastic lineup..

Congratulations to everyone who made the cut for what will be a fab anthology! Commiserations to those who missed this time; I've been there myself. Don't give up on those stories, we had to make some close calls. Thanks to everyone who subbed - so enjoyed reading them all. #FlashFiction #NFFD

I got to see my @thirtywestph.com chapbook cover this weekend and she's beautiful!! I cannot wait for you all to see 👀👀👀

Some news, as the kids used to say!! My debut flash fiction chapbook, CALL MY BODY A CAUTIONARY TALE, will be published by @thirtywestph.com this Fall! Folklore! speculative fiction! ghost stories! sad girls! I cannot wait for it to be out in the world 💜☠️💃👩‍💻

@havehashad.com was the first publication to ever give my writing a home nearly 5 years ago!! Now I've got my second skull 💀💀 If you thought the Super Bowl commercials this year were dystopic AF this one's for you!

Grateful this piece found a second home with @trashcatlit.bsky.social! Read and listen 👇
