The first short story publication of 2025

Today my flash fiction piece “The Bad Like” became my first published short story of the new year. It was published by the literary humor magazine Witcraft. My thanks to Witcraft editor Doug Jacquier for accepting this story.

New published poem, ‘Publish or Perish — A Prayer’

My poem (or maybe “doggerel” is the more fitting description), “Publish or Perish — A Prayer,” was published today in Witcraft, which is a literary magazine focused on humor and the lighter side (tagline: “Because not everything has to be serious”). Give it a read and let me know what you think.
