Delighted to receive an acceptance from @inkinthirds.bsky.social, with a poem that wastes no words in conveying my wrath and rage for health insurance companies, which...let us recall...were founded as FOR-PROFIT business entities with literally no focus on patient welfare or care at all. #poetry

Today is the Day that Alex Honnold definitely will not die! 🤞🤞🤞

shannonfrostgreenstein.com/2025/12/31/l... A brand-new poem in the nearly-old year, thanks to @feralpoetryandart.bsky.social. I meant every single word. #writer #writing #author #poet #poetry #poem #amwriting #writingcommunity #capitalism

Let’s all hope Alex Honnold doesn’t fall off that building in Taipei. 🤞

I'm going to get one of those "WWJD" bracelets that we all wore in middle school, only it's going to say "WWZMD," because I trust Zohran Mamdani to save us all. And because Democratic Socialism is actually the ideology that most closely resembles what Jesus was preaching about in the first place. 🤣

Osmosis - Audio shannonfrostgreenstein.com/2025/09/05/o... via @ShannonFrostGre An mp3 of a downer of a flash fiction piece, and the dulcet tones of my voice as I read it. #writing #writer #author #flash #fiction #audio #reading #writingcommunity #amwriting

shannonfrostgreenstein.com/2025/09/05/o... A tiny little flash about biology and bad luck. I hope you take 45 seconds to read! #flash #fiction #writer #writing #author #writingcommunity #amwriting #castaway #audio #literary #write

So delighted to have a copy of the summer issue of Metachrosis Lit Mag in my hands. They were kind enough to publish my hermit crab piece about my widowed Czech Grandmother’s late-in-life boyfriend, and it feels good to honor her legacy in this inconsequential way. :) #writer #writing #author

shannonfrostgreenstein.com/2025/09/01/w... I am honored to be included in the Fall issue of @doorisajarmag.bsky.social. This flash is directly based on the 2004 Indonesian tidal wave and is, understandably, quite a downer. But the REST of the issue is gorgeous and uplifting! 🤣 #writer #author #flash

Mood:

Y'all, I'm in the Fall Issue of @doorisajarmag.bsky.social with some flash fiction about the Indonesian tidal wave. And, yes, it's a downer, but I would still recommend you read this gorgeous magazine, because the other 44 contributors might have written something happy. Click the link to pre-order!

Thanks to @metachrosislitmag.bsky.social for publishing my latest CNF, a true story of first love and my absolutely terrifying German grandmother! You can read it on my site or buy a gorgeous issue for yourself! shannonfrostgreenstein.com/2025/08/01/m...

I’ve got some new CNF out, the story of my grandparents’ 50-year marriage and the relationship my grandmother resumed with her very first boyfriend from back in Czechoslovakia after my grandfather passed away. ❤️ #cnf #nonfiction #writer #author #writingcommunity #essay #writing #literary #litmag

Because we all have a moral obligation to speak up. Complicity is now a crime in and of itself. I’m delighted to have my poem included in a collection that calls out injustice and fights for change. I hope you read my poetic rant! #poetry #poet #writer shannonfrostgreenstein.com/2025/07/31/t...

I cannot even describe how much I needed this this morning.

I see you standing up, Miss Rachel. I see you. 👍 🍉 🇵🇸

Because when you pay an actual human artist to illustrate your family instead of using AI to spit out something soulless, you can actually TELL. Death to the robots. Real art lives!!!

I am GUTTED. 😢

I have a new poem out in the world, thanks to @unlikely-stories.bsky.social, and I was so happy when it got placed. It’s a departure from my previous poetry, and I really hope you take a look! shannonfrostgreenstein.com/2025/07/13/c... #poem #poetry #writer #author #poet #writingcommunity #amwriting

Because AI, crypto, Bitcoin, and chatGPT will be our DOOM. 🤣

Y’all, this was meant to be a 2,500-word short story, and THINGS CHANGED. 🤣 Probably the most fun I’ve ever had researching, because the myth of the Wendigo is BANANAS. 🍌

I keep underestimating my son, and he keeps surpassing every single expectation I have ever set for him. My heart is so full. ❤️ #asd #AutismSpectrumDisorder #AutismMom #Family

Thanks to @prosetrics.bsky.social for adding my story to this absolutely beautiful glossy tome. The piece is a tale of cochlear implants and the maddening power of sound, and it couldn’t have found a better home. ❤️

Some fiction in the new Long River Review, and this magazine is so freaking pretty! Honored to grace its pages with a true-to-life story about my coworker’s friend’s cousin’s cryptic pregnancy. #writing #writingcommunity #writer #author #amwriting #fiction #shortstory

Summatime.

Some new fiction in the world, thanks to SciFanSat! I was BLOWN AWAY when I first learned “Queen for a Day” was actually a THING in the 1940s. 🤯 Link also in Bio! shannonfrostgreenstein.com/2025/06/02/q... #fiction #writing #writer #author #writingcommunity #amwriting #syfy #scifi #realityTV
