Use our A-Z index to explore a few themes:
Shit Plate
“To some of us who sat with Mike at lunch every day, Shit Plate felt like a good thing that we were doing, like charity work.”
Dogs Who Break My Heart
“This was true, but the dogs whose bowls I filled only just outnumbered those I injected with pentobarbital, running my hands along their backs as their eyes filmed over, just the way a skin of ice settles still and foggy overtop the glossy water of the creek.”
What We’re Reading Now: Entering the Dragon’s Mouth in “Pleasantview”
“We are, after all, witnessing everyone and everything at its most heightened. Each story is imbued with a distinct pathos, be it betrayal, hatred, jubilation, confusion, acceptance, or mercy.”
“I Have Been Exposed to a Toxic Mineral Compound” & “Ode to Kubrick’s ‘Old Woman in Bath’”
oiceless
but for when you appear
mirrored, a bloated hag
haw-hawing like a woman
could, I suppose, if he imagined
so.
Items of Value
“I don’t know what the break-in meant to me at the time, but it was like a stray thread, a thread that, once I tugged upon it, unspooled my entire world and snagged open a portal through which I could escape.”
Submissions for our Fresh Voices Fellowship are open now through October 15, 2026.
