While waiting to learn who the next winners of the #Pushcart Prize are, now's a great time to familiarize yourself with their 2025 edition! It features "Day Care" by #MaryGordon & gives a special mention to #GregorySpatz for "Brake." Both stories were originally published in FICTION No. 66!

Really digging @epiphanylit.bsky.social's latest issue & was pleasantly surprised to see a story by @jweirdo.bsky.social, one of our Managing Editor's professors from #QueensCollege! It's a beautifully written glimpse into the personal impact of the AIDs epidemic. Pics taken on #7train. #Groovy

I had the best time at Epiphany’s holiday reading celebrating their gorgeous new issue! Absolutely adored Wah-Ming Chang’s memoir, @jweirdo.bsky.social’s fiction and @saralippmann.bsky.social’s lovely words about the importance of literature and community at times like these. ❤️
