Everyone's struggling & the world's on fire so I'm sorry to ask, but I need your help again.

If you could donate and/or share my Go Fund Me campaign, it would go a long way to helping me pay for increased costs for my breast cancer treatment. Details in my update.

ICE stalked an elderly woman who works in homecare for her grandchildren on her way to pay her rent. They stopped her, broke her car window, and roughed her up enough to cause a concussion, bruised ribs, and a torn rotator cuff. Then found her passport in her purse and fled. gofund.me/b7afaa65e

Hey folks!

Due to a series of unforeseen expenses, I need to raise some cash before royalty season rolls around at the beginning of April. Because of that, I am going to do something I don't usually do and offer paid mentoring sessions for aspiring writers.

If you tried submitting this morning and were stymied, just try again. Some miscommunications between the scheduling arm of the magazine (Past Me) and the communications arm (Yesterday Me). But This Morning's Wendy has things up and running! :D
One day left to submit your work to Nightmare Magazine! We close at 11 pm tomorrow night.
As ever, we're looking for short stories under 7500 words, flash stories 0-1500 words long, poetry, and creative nonfiction.

My friend is really concerned about her 1 year old cat's safety. She's having serious health issues, can't drive, & her very limited local support network is trying to get her to just put the cat outside. Anyone know any rescue/fosters for a kitty in Montgomery County,TX??

"Gather ye field mice as ye may..."

I looked at these mice laying on the floor this morning and the above words leapt into my brain, but I can't find a source!

Stephen Miller's designs on America are tearing us apart.

Michael's stories about Miller's emails to Breitbart provide the clearest picture of this metastasizing narcissism. In this interview, Michael freestyled the best explanation I've heard of how we got here.

This is Peaches. She was found as a stray with two breaks in her back leg, leaving a fragment of bone floating between the fractures and causing severe pain. She needs surgery and a plate implant for the chance to walk comfortably again. Help her below ❤️‍🩹
