"In between snow drifts and abandoned firearms, emaciated birds pick at the carcasses. Crows with blood-wet beaks" Rich, sumptuous writing from @romymorreo.bsky.social that contrasts so well with what is being brought to life

Issue 8 #Microfiction INFESTATION, another by @romymorreo.bsky.social “Multiplication, the perpetual nightmare of math (fuck you, Mr.Dennington), as if the plague wasn’t bad enough already, dusting me in rot while I vomit rage: if you’re gonna die in my home, pay some fucking rent first.”

Issue 8 #Microfiction AFTER THE LAST ABDUCTION by @romymorreo.bsky.social “Embers of a war with no winners burn lonely by the wayside.” epistemiclit.com/issue-eight/...

Gorgeous audio readings of her 2 micros in @epistemiclit.bsky.social by @romymorreo.bsky.social "Starlings flutter down to feast; magpies hop, tentative, to take their fill. Tired sirens make their final pleas somewhere far away." epistemiclit.com/issue-eight/...

Beyond honoured to have two micros, 'Infestation' and 'After the Last Abduction', featured in this issue. Enormous thanks to the editors for their hard work!

So stoked!

Honoured, and so pleased this little piece found a great home!

New microfiction live on our Substack from @romymorreo.bsky.social 🐈‍⬛🐈 This one is a devastating, mournful snapshot of a sci-fi world. It's a short read, but one that's stuck with me ever since Romy submitted it. Check out the link below to read more.

New year (still, sort of). Two poetry acceptances so far. Resolution: improve my craft and get more of my work out there.

Just realised I'm going to miss this window because I'll be on the school run 😭😭

next submission call in ~48 hours! Tuesday, June 10, 10 am ET! looking for SQUARE blocks of text. what that means, vaguely: ~280-290 words, no linebreaks, no paragraph breaks. what that means, specifically: 20 lines of text w/ HAD formatting: havehashad.com/pages/wysiwyg

Got my copy, thanks @acidbathpublishing.bsky.social 😍 It looks amazing! Honoured to have my short story, The Bystander, included.

Look what arrived today! I got accepted for this back when I only had two publishing credits to my name. I can't wait to read through it!

I've got a poem about being diabetic in here! I can't wait to read the whole issue.

I don't mind saying I'm very happy to have my poem, 'Stripping', in this bestselling anthology 😎

On this very cold Thursday, we are highlighting Romy Morreo's piece in the winter pop-up. We loved the use of the different species to tell a very human story. The MC's voice is perfect, with the gentle use of humour; you will feel his emotions 🐐 trashcatlit.com/home-is-not-... #FlashFiction
