The tower has been indecisive lately, always appearing in many places at once. It cannot decide where it wants to be, which is unfortunate for we who are stuck inside it. Luckily, we have an excellent short story to read: "Bad Decisions" by M. Stevenson crowcrosskeys.com/2026/03/21/bad…

We at the tower are investigating the identity of "the narrator", for there must always be a narrator. Thus far, results are inconclusive. What is conclusive, however, is the excellence of today's flash fiction: "Heavens, Ashes, Earth" by Miriam Killdeer crowcrosskeys.com/2026/03/18/hea…

The eldritch creature that exists in a parallel version of the tower has been trying to lure us with talk of a great inheritance. We are doing our best to ignore it. For example, by reading today's duo of poems by Sarah Clark: "Secret Moon" "Heirloom" crowcrosskeys.com/2026/03/14/two…

We at the tower have been comparing ourselves to buildings. If we were a building, and we couldn't pick the tower, what would we be? On architecture and other things, today's reprinted short fiction: "My Architecture" by George Nevgodovskyy crowcrosskeys.com/2026/03/11/my-…

We've been turning into strange things of late. The tower is filled with once-human objects, who still retain some human features. We are disquieted. Let's read some flash fiction to ease our minds... "That Which is Not God" by Dana Brewer Harris crowcrosskeys.com/2026/03/07/tha…

Plants are ravenous beasts. Just yesterday, the weeds beneath an old elm in the tower garden ate an unexpected visitor. It's a shame really, they won't get to experience today's poem. "the woman who fed an island" by Emily Rose Davies crowcrosskeys.com/2026/03/04/the…

It has been uncharacteristically sunny around the tower today. We're certain that the weather is up to something. We're uncertain whether that something is nefarious. We'll distract ourselves with today's story: "The Mirror and the Wind" by Andrew Senior crowcrosskeys.com/2026/02/28/the…

The cats that live in the tower can move through the walls. A cat steps through the kitchen wall and steps out in the attic. We're too afraid to ask how they do it. Instead, we read flash fiction: "Cats Can't Live on the Moon" by Lauren Kardos crowcrosskeys.com/2026/02/25/cat…

The fruit that grows in the tower garden has gained the ability to speak. They speak in riddles. We're not certain whether they're safe to eat. For now, we tend them & wait. We consume poetry instead, just like this... "peachpit cantrip" by Kristen Reece crowcrosskeys.com/2026/02/21/pea…

We try not to engage with human items found in non-human places. That stove you found in a remote cave? Don't light it. The writing desk on the beach? Leave it alone. You never know what might happen... "A Velvet Chair Anywhere but Home" by Brianna Alers crowcrosskeys.com/2026/02/18/a-v…
