This is incredible. I can't even process his spelling fast enough against the words to know if he is right or not on some of these.

Just a few more days until the release of issue 8. We provide all of our stories and poems for free, releasing them from the paywall on Free Fiction Fridays over several months, but we need more paying subscribers to keep the lights on. magazine.trollbreath.com/membership-a...

👀 Paulina Mangubat of The Democrats: “I want Katie Miller to know her husband is an ugly fuck. I stand by calling him an ugly fuck.” (From @acyn.bsky.social )

Slowly, but surely, we are starting to get some cartoon submissions from some pretty fantastic cartoonists and I'm absolutely thrilled. On top of Ellie and Zack who we've published already, I've had three people submit in the last week or so that are perfect fits.

Ex Partum is officially out next week. Here's what @mynachang.bsky.social thought of it (and we all know she has SUPERB taste in stories). Sound like it's up your alley? I hope so! Pre-order here: emmaburnett.carrd.co #booksky 🪐📚

Messed up some small formatting things, but it's fixed now!

Any Foof winners or finalists want a badge for their own personal site or publication…?

I don't feel great about this, but after multiple back and forth emails on our contract for Crumbs, which I offered to amend, I pulled our acceptance for one of the finalists… so someone might be receiving an acceptance after their initial rejection soon…

The feds harangued Kat and my family over bullshit charges for a year. They tried to beat her down, bankrupt Kat and her codefendants through legal fees, and a defeat her spirit. They fucking lost. They will continue to lose. Fuck ICE forever. To this criminal gang of a government: stay losing.

This is a special one! The first one where the entire page was designed around the story. I'm probably getting a bit too ambitious, but the goal is for each story to have its own unique feel to go with the story and artwork. I can't promise every story will get this treatment, but I'll do my best.

A couple more updates to go, especially for mobile, but I’ve pushed some decently significant changes to the home page today, which I think are a lot of fun. https://foofaraw.press

Exploring the idea of a new imprint where it’s closer to a self-publishing model where Foofaraw is more hands off, but would still help you find cover art and an editor (or bring your own) and then we’d typeset, prepare, and publish, etc. with zero oversight or marketing help.

Past few weeks I've been hermit mode to wrap up some stock art pieces/sets. GREEN MISERY 24 swamp images CC 4.0. inc some characters; like Reyon and the swamphogs. I didn't do more swamp hogs but next update i'll explore. This one has been on the backburner for awhile, along with others.. so..

I GET LOGGED OUT. BUT I LOG IN AGAIN

I don't ask for much, but I put in a ton of work on the new design for our Media Guide newsletter and I'd love it if you just poked around, clicked a couple links. I'm really proud of how this turned out. https://foofaraw.press/the-media-guide-s7e8/

Author copies of “Suicide Valley Trail Maintenance” arrived today, and they look BEAUTIFUL. Grab your copy before the first printing runs out: www.stanchionzine.com/product-page... @stanchion.bsky.social

Wowowow - this is amazing; love seeing what people do with the art and create something new with it. 🐺🌳🐈

This is the first example of some improvements we are making. For our interviews, the changes are very small (stories will have som really fun stuff), but you can start to see how we are implementing some changes to adapt to the type of post we are publishing here vs previous interviews.

🎙️ H.C. Ricci #Autopsy #Interviews https://foofaraw.press/h-c-ricci/#Autopsy〄

Prepping some really, really cool site improvements for season eight that kicks off in July, but there will be some hints and previews over the coming weeks. 👀

New interview today with the amazing @gilloshaughnessy.bsky.social about her new collection, SALT CITY RUNAWAY!

LSD is also useful, but we aren't handing out tabs to elementary school students or forcing college students to dope up in order to pass gen ed. We acknowledge that it's uses are limited to highly specific and extremely regulated circumstances.

So it's not *quite* finished, but if you're curious how I pay my bills (and fund foofaraw) you can check out my new freelance consulting site—lots of cool little features in there. humdrum.industries

In honor of our Dino issue (open for submissions now!), we decided to bring a Pterosaur back to life for ya’ll. You’re welcome! https://foofaraw.submittable.com/submit/345863/someone-elses-september

Planning on moving our three-month submission call openings to two months moving forward. We closed early in Q4 as we filled all of our spots and now with simsubs and increased pay, our volume has gone up significantly. Should help lower response time and give us more downtime.

Rebuilding my website for my day job as a freelance consultant. Coming along pretty nicely!

Thinking of doing an analog submission call where folks have to snail mail their submissions in. Would do something fun with the publication of those stories too... this will probably happen.
