I need to figure out a 232-word quirky literary micro---a little fantastical I think---before it burns a hole through my flash fiction backlog. It's cute and a little sweet and says something a bit deeper too, but in a light way. 🦋

dear #writers, #poets, #editors,

i'm new here. i chose @sfba.social simply because i live in the East Bay. it seems like a great instance with lots of great people. but i still wonder if it might have been wiser to choose an instance dedicated to writing and/or art

(this account is for building a community around my #LitJournal, #ExistOtherwise)

because i'm just getting started here, if i'm going to move, i'd rather do it sooner than later

Went on one last binge of submitting some flash pieces and one older sci fi short story before I get back to writing this week. It's nice to know there could be some excitement in my inbox when I am in the writing trenches.

Really cool submission call from Fictive Dream—they're publishing a new piece of flash fiction every day of February 2023, and each one gets paired with original artwork (per the bird site)! Submit one piece, 200-850 words, before the December 31st deadline. Simultaneous submissions are a-OK.
