it’s Sunday on bluesky so I am urging everyone to take care of themselves. Take a walk, have a second cup of coffee or tea, read a book, spend some time looking at small poems

“Pacing matters so much to me. I love stories with a natural rhythm—ones that carry me from point A to point B seamlessly. Rhythm is the kind of thing you might not notice unless it’s missing, but when it’s there, it makes all the difference.”

-Liana Johnson (one of our readers) on the BFLM blog!
