Thank you @offbeatlit.bsky.social @bestmicrofiction.bsky.social @dseuss.bsky.social 💙💙💙

One of the chief virtues of the book is that it’s nearly the only remaining form of media that isn’t constantly being interrupted by ads. Between the covers is the last place on earth where no one is trying to sell you shit, a place where you can still be a human being rather than a mark.

Sex Pistols playing in the dentist waiting room. Things have changed.

say this every time, but every time it is a treat to get to feature and share new work from HAD fave Julián Martinez! "She forgives my lack of communication! I forgive her lack of decision-making! We get to focus on the ways we make our hearts go BOOM!" https://www.havehashad.com/r9bng

⭐️⭐️⭐️

What does "Hidden behind the door that sorrow locked" mean? @cowboyjamboree.bsky.social asked and of course a bunch of writers took the bait. Check out the whole issue--it's really great: www.cowboyjamboreemagazine.com/hidden-behin... Here's one of my contributions.

amazing

good morning

We’re open!

This was a great conversation—I got one video game and two book recommendations, some super helpful writing advice, and cool background inspiration for Amber’s new novel, Happy People Don’t Live Here, which is on my nightstand. ⭐️⭐️⭐️

Want to believe (in everything)? Read this @keersteemack.bsky.social story.

Dr. Jane Goodall filmed an interview with Netflix in March 2025 that she understood would only be released after her death.

This flash is so good. Man.

These small @ezhang77.bsky.social poems are actually giant poems.

Good adivce for those of us with an associate's degree from an accredited two-year institution. "From a certain perspective everything looks like math but if you pay attention to the subtext it says to work on being charming and go into sales..." Thanks @rfpress.bsky.social 😍

Very honored — thanks @bruisermag.com ⭐️

Thank you thank you thank you @rfpress.bsky.social for publishing these "six little ones"! Here's one, the rest at the link: www.roifaineantpress.com/post/six-lit....

And if you DON’T like micro fiction, maybe these will bring you around? Could happen, cuz @rfpress.bsky.social is an amazing lit mag.

Five things you probably don’t know about the number five. Thanks @havehashad.com 💙

"There are actually five chambers of the heart. The fifth one holds all your loneliness, which for some people stays put and for some people leaks out slowly." 🔥 today from Jeffrey Hermann https://www.havehashad.com/0cj37

I feel so upset by the fact that so many of these same people fetishizing mourning right now have ignored the gun deaths of thousands of children, have just allowed their memories to disappear like smoke in the public mind

If you have literally 35 seconds you can read this story of mine that @matchbooklitmag.bsky.social was kind enough to publish. 😘 www.matchbooklitmag.com/mb/hermann/t...

I ❤️ @matchbooklitmag.bsky.social

New micro up at the never disappointing Disappointed Housewife @offbeatlit.bsky.social thedisappointedhousewife.com/2025/08/20/t...

"I’m planning a big party. My friend has no idea. She hates her job and cries on the weekends about it. We tell her she can do better. We tell each other lies all the time..."

I have a weird little micro up at Scaffold Lit, a great place for weird little micros. www.scaffoldlit.com/microwriting...

Disco punk? Dance stomp? Electronic poptart? I don’t know how to categorize it but the Gelli Haha album is sooo good.

Thanks to @maudlinhouse.bsky.social and a hat tip to ee cummings. maudlinhouse.net/in-just-spri... "Just then my entomologist calls. She has good news about the beetle population. Thriving is what she says. “It’s going to be a good year for the little things,” is what I text my wife."

"No matter how good we get at predicting things, no amount of prediction could have told me ten years ago what my life was going to be like now." fivebooks.com/best-books/w...

Sky Daddy is so wild and beautiful and funny. Favorite novel this year for sure —maybe several years. @katefolk.bsky.social

I Don’t Believe in Magic But I Hate it When Someone Diminishes Magic That’s why I deleted all my social media apps. That’s also why I put them back the next day. Then I called someone I’d been meaning to call for years. Neither of us had any news.

I love Wigleaf’s postcards, so this is a thrill ⭐️⭐️⭐️

I'm in the new Heavy Feather, which is an honor! Someone’s Making Money Off My Old Problems, Someone Else Is Charging Me for New Ones heavyfeatherreview.org/2025/06/19/m...
