We are proud to be lucky number 7 in the Bold and Weird category of Chill Subs Best Lit Mags of 2025! The donkey is always happy to receive compliments (but only when we pass on the message to him, since he really can't read, despite his protests). Check out all the winners here: buff.ly/Xw4HXk6

Long time no see! Obviously I don’t really use this app… but… I wanted to tell y’all to go check out the inaugural issue of infinitescrollmag.com because I have a poem in there!! Still on the submitting grind and hopeful something else will be accepted for publication soon ✨

I am so happy to say that 3 of my recent narrative poems have been accepted for publication in an online journal - want to confirm things before I share more 😉

I also need to submit more… but the confidence is lacking 🥴
