Extremely excited to have a flash piece in the third anniversary issue of manywor(l)ds. It’s about Mothman which by definition means it’s also about grief. Long live the Almost-Bug. manyworlds.place/issue-13/
this is a really special day for manywor(l)ds - our third anniversary, and the release of our thirteenth issue! we built this issue with special care and intention to reflect our mission, aesthetic, and desires as a magazine, and are proud of how it turned out.

"manywor(l)ds is an anti-binary and trans-boundary rebel child." A huge huge huge thanks to past contributor Mei Beckof, who gave us a generous review over at MagBlog. We feel so incredibly seen and honored 🥰💙👽
manywor(l)ds is my dream mag to run & my beloved queercrip&transMad baby. I appreciate the ways that our contributors see & interrogate & reflect back our mission toward monstrosity/transformation/crossing/opacity, especially when they do so in ways I couldn't dream of imagining alone. 💙 Thank you!

This is a novella or short novel that is especially hard to "pitch" to people. I think if you enjoy surrealism/absurdism, post-apocalyptic stories, picaresque "well, that was just a bunch of stuff that happened!" plots, ambiguity, open endings, & introspection, you'll likely get something out of it.
The third part of SOME BLIND HAND's free first chapter! This one is quite short, but now all three POV characters/narrators have been introduced. : ) www.patreon.com/posts/156578...
We're open for submissions through APRIL 30, and are hungry for your work, the weirder the better. manyworlds.place/what-to-incl...
