Alternating Current Press recently announced the selections for the 2025 edition of The Best Small Fictions anthology, and there are some great ones you can read online, right now. Here are five I enjoyed that were published in some literary magazines I try to read regularly.
- “At Once,” by Sarah Freligh, published in Ghost Parachute.
- “Based on a True Story,” by Epiphany Ferrell, published in the (unfortunately now closed) Witcraft.
- “They fired up the laser,” by Timothy C. Goodwin, published in Dishsoap Quarterly.
- “Finding the Water to Cry,” by Jacqueline Goyette, published in Stanchion.
- “Splinter,” by Didi Wood, published in Fractured Lit.
Have a good weekend.
