So delighted to have a copy of the summer issue of Metachrosis Lit Mag in my hands. They were kind enough to publish my hermit crab piece about my widowed Czech Grandmother’s late-in-life boyfriend, and it feels good to honor her legacy in this inconsequential way. :) #writer #writing #author

shannonfrostgreenstein.com/2025/09/01/w... I am honored to be included in the Fall issue of @doorisajarmag.bsky.social. This flash is directly based on the 2004 Indonesian tidal wave and is, understandably, quite a downer. But the REST of the issue is gorgeous and uplifting! 🤣 #writer #author #flash

Because we all have a moral obligation to speak up. Complicity is now a crime in and of itself. I’m delighted to have my poem included in a collection that calls out injustice and fights for change. I hope you read my poetic rant! #poetry #poet #writer

Y’all, this was meant to be a 2,500-word short story, and THINGS CHANGED. 🤣 Probably the most fun I’ve ever had researching, because the myth of the Wendigo is BANANAS. 🍌
