A micro (or poem or flash etc) a day keeps inhumanity away.

You don’t want to miss these, everyone!

ICYMI, two micros of mine landed in the beautiful new issue of @templeinacity.bsky.social. Many thanks again to @eireneeleni.bsky.social for believing in these stories. templeinacity.com/two-micro-fi...

I had four poems (two new, two reprints) out a few days ago from @eunoiareview.bsky.social (the arm is getting much better, so getting caught up on what I missed!) eunoiareview.wordpress.com/tag/betty-st... #poem #blueskypoetry #poetrysky #poetrycommunity #writingcommunity #amwriting

Also me:

Me: We should gambol. Them: Gamble or gambol? Me: Gambol. Them: You’re big on interiority. You can gambol on the inside. Me:

Today I will be a little calf gamboling in not sub-zero temperatures at last at last

I love Matt’s articles and find them so helpful. You might too. ❤️

A bookshelf collapsed today and oh look what a weird way to remember things I read before.

How I Fell in Love With Practicing Law From Prison

“A progressive illness is like a prison sentence in that it marks a loss of freedom, the death of a future.” 😭❤️‍🩹

Heads up, everyone! There's a new Cathy Ulrich story out in the world. One of my very favorite writers. 💙

This is a great story!!! Cathy Ulrich in @flashfrog.bsky.social

Been out of the game for a while (what with grad school & everything) so it's delightful to make it onto a longlist as I try to get back into the swing of things! Congrats to everyone on the list & can't wait to see some of these stories!

‘It’s International Women’s Day. Why aren’t you smiling?’

Don't forget to water your clocks; in six months they will grow that hour back for you.

Amazing Beth, I'm there too 😀

I am .. so deeply exhausted at people who at our big grown age…. Can not make space for even the CONCEIT that not everyone and thing isn’t just to make them “comfy”

What a fucking beautiful night. Thank you everyone for coming to Death to @publishedbyjake.bsky.social ! I couldn't have asked for a better send off.

Well, still processing the news, but my short story “More” has been selected as the 2nd Prize Winner at the Bath Flash Fiction February 2026 Award. Big thanks to Jude Higgins and Ingrid Jendzrejewski for the selection. Read all prize-winning work here: www.bathflashfictionaward.com/category/win...

As we hurtle towards international women's day and the usual articles about women chefs will be dutifully rolled out, I want to flag up something. There are many Gujarati restaurants with all-female teams of mostly older women, diligently cooking their family's recipes, that go largely unheralded.

Theme!

I got a mention on the Epistemic Monthly Contributor Highlights. If you haven't subbed to them yet, you really should 🥰 epistemiclit.com//current-iss...

It’s such an honor to be called out by @turnandwork.com, and I may need to paint Hugh’s kind words on my wall for those days when I feel like I can’t write!

Just submitted a flash fiction piece about a dystopian, yet hopeful, future. I tweaked it a little, read it out loud again, and thought, "I really like this story." And I do! Hoping the editors like it too. #hopespringseternal #writing #amwriting #sffh #scifi

You're alive. You're alive. #Ukrainianview

We're not at AWP (bummer), but we're both still cool and open for submissions!

Why is it a single yawn has to be joined by multiple yawn friends until there is a yawn party so extreme neighbours complain, why are yawns so social, I have other things to do.

Sweet hours left for last-second deadline folk.
