Very happy to place a nonfiction piece with @RevolutionJohnM -- this one is about my mom, hard times, prisons, convenient stores, Pops, and finding things that have kept us going all these years. Thank you, AnneMarie, and Neil, for giving this one a home. https://t.co/ALxe3hf5l7

"Darcy could see the technology, but she didn’t understand the breaking. She didn’t understand the clementine, the playdough, and how everything becomes a heel. Darcy could go on." Contributor @mike_hammerle published this beautiful story @TheoAirgonaut: https://t.co/XU4C3HTJw9

Read @happymil_ in @TheoAirgonaut "...she hangs up before I reply, like I don’t have the right to protest and I should suffer in silence and dignity and resign to my fate, a fate everyone envies but no one wants." https://t.co/WC3jv2PXR3
@ShelCompton put together a great issue.

I have a speculative fiction piece titled "Heel" in @TheoAirgonaut today. It's a story set about 70 years in the future and it's about a mother and daughter. Give it a read if you want. Thanks @ShelCompton for giving this one a home.

New prose poem in @Wastelandlitmag :) this is a nice one about playing with lights in the dark and all the things and shapes you see: beach trips, KOA, glow sticks, grandparents, the slip and slide of memories that pour in. https://t.co/DRsS13bHdU

New flash fiction piece, "DNR" in BULL. Typical stuff: valhalla, grandparents, dogs, kickboxing. Give the story a read. It's maybe? funny and sad like most of my writing. BULL and @thedrevlow are awesome. Thanks for picking up another one!
