Congrats, Sharon! I love this story!
I'm honored that my magical realism short story, "When Mr. Boppo Joined the Cohort," was selected as the Winner of the 2025 Honeybee Prize in short fiction! Thanks to contest judge @MCzyzniejewski for his kind words and the amazing team @goodlifelitmag! Check out the issue!
Thank, Andrew!
Current read The Amnesiac in the Maze by @MCzyzniejewski @BraddockAveBook
Ian Happ went to the University of Cincinnati and Matt Shaw went to the University of Maryland. What did they major in? Leasure Studies. #Cubs #chicagocubs
Godlessness abound.
Really fun thought experiment story from @MCzyzniejewski that is both very fun and interesting. An alien invasion story about atheism. From his book, The Amnesiac in the Maze @BraddockAveBook
