Deliciously WTF! I'm never going to look at magnolias the same way again, @devaneemily.bsky.social

Looking forward to the launch of the print anthology tonight
It's been a while, but I'm super chuffed to have a story on this list. Thanks to the BFFA team, and good luck, everyone 🙏.
Because... trees have feelings, too 🌸.
This fun little story is dedicated to a magnolia I once admired, that was sadly gone too soon. Thanks to the #nffd2026 crew for including it in this year's flood 🙏.
Join us TOMORROW at the next @wordfactoryuk.bsky.social online short story club on the 15th June! @cathygalvin.bsky.social and I will discuss the fantastic, ‘In the Cemetery Where Al Jolson is Buried’ by Amy Hempel. All welcome! 😊

This is word and sad and beautiful and has @devaneemily.bsky.social’s brilliance all over it 🧡🧡🧡 @natflashfictionday.bsky.social “I shake my head, because no, I haven’t seen the magnolia’s new shoes and just how many shoes does a tree need”
‘Each flower is an elegant pink cup, the shape of a champagne flute, tall and proud, and when they fall, the flowers resemble tears, and the magnolia’s limbs look naked.’
Bizarre and brilliant and beautiful from @devaneemily.bsky.social in @natflashfictionday.bsky.social 🌸
FlashFlood: 'Telegraph' by Sharon Telfer #nffd2026
This #nffd1026 Write-In prompt was my absolute fav – borrow 5 words from a FlashFlood piece and incorporate them into a flash on a different theme. I chose @devaneemily.bsky.social's 'Magnolia' because a) it's gorgeous and b) miss a chance to reference the Grateful Dead? I could never⚡️🧸
