I have taken the beer which was left in the freezer and which you were probably saving for breakfast or lunch knowing you Forgive me or actually maybe not the can was about to explode on the corn and the peas as anyone might have foreseen who wasn't a fucking moron

Favourite thing I have read in ages!!!!

Cathy Ulrich + @Wigleaf = 🔥🔥

this one is a banger:

This is the second @loki_writes story that's knocked me for a loop today. This one brings a punch and a jab.

new new (last b4 our mini AWP break!): "My Friend," by Julia Gilmour: wigleaf.com

Just read a clearly AI submission from somebody who said they'd had more than a 100 stories published recently. Looked it up, and yes, lots and lots of people publishing AI, apparently, including one or two top-tier journals.

Big thanks to ⁦@apt613⁩ and always Black Squirrel Books ❤️ apt613.ca/qa-sacha-bisso…

Hey these are really quite good

new new: THREE MICROS, by Elena Zhang: wigleaf.com

new new: "The Center," by Dominica Phetteplace: wigleaf.com

This story, by the wonderful @emilyrinkema, innovatively scrambles chronology and creates something more impactful by accumulation than what a simple chronological narrative would have.

Before our new iteration tomorrow, we strongly recommend you give a read to The Bulb Region writer Claire Hopple's (@clairehopple) delightful flash, "Tag," in @Wigleaf. wigleaf.com/202506tag.htm

I could not be any happier about where this story ended up...Thank you so much @Wigleaf for seeing the heart in this flash. Hope you'll all give it a read: "Things That Happened at or around My Cousin Kelly's Funeral, in No Particular Order." wigleaf.com

If there were an Oscars of flash, @emilyrinkema would be up for top honors this year. (We were blown away by this one--rare unanimous vote.)
