Something interesting you might not have realized: a number of words in English are NOUNS when you stress the FIRST syllable, but VERBS when you stress the SECOND syllable. "Your CONduct is better when you conDUCT yourself appropriately.” 🧵⬇️

On This Day in History: September 24, 1896 Happy birthday F. Scott Fitzgerald. His work endures. So does the truth about how it was made. Zelda wrote, painted, and tried to publish on her own terms. He took what he wanted and pulled back when she needed his support. Team Zelda, always. #booksky

Thrilled to have art in the new issue!

Delighted to have two Flash stories selected as finalist for the marathon contest by The Ekphrastic Review. Congrats to the winner and other finalists. www.ekphrastic.net/the-ekphrast...
