Our new issue is LIVE! Cover art by Claudia Tong. Check it out: neonandsmoke.com! This issue is led largely by women’s voices. Nearly all of this month's contributors are female.

Our new editor’s blog, “Why We Exist for the In-Between,” is now live. It digs into the kind of stories we love, the ones that live between genres, between emotions, between who we were and who we’re becoming. Read, comment, or shoot me an email. Would love to know what you think.

Submissions are OPEN. We welcome new authors, diverse voices, strange visions, and writers with deep resumes. Our first Editor’s Blog is also live — step into the haze and join the conversation. Neon & Smoke — half genre / always lit #LitMag #SubmissionsOpen #FlashFiction
