I’m guest editing the next issue of Agita; send me your weirdest <1000 word stories about weird art. Authors from marginalized backgrounds encouraged and prioritized. No AI bullshit. The weirder the better. agitamag.com/submissions/

Issue 3: Ekphrasis
Between October 17 and November 17, guest editor Zachary Gillan will accept submissions of weird flash fiction that features ekphrasis.
Ekphrasis is the verbal representation of a work of visual art.
Weird fiction is a verbal representation of the world, in order to unsettle it.
We want stories that live at the intersection of the two. Pieces that emphasize the eerie power of weird art, whether fully ekphrastic or embedded within a traditional narrative. How does the weird seep in as reality is doubly estranged from these two layers of representation? Cursed paintings, uncanny statues, haunted mezzotints-send us your stories of weird art.

actually been on this wave with a Yellow King-themed zine I'm working on

a zine page styled like a broadsheet reading "Bulletin! For the greater knowledge and protection of our locale. Friday October 13, a 'babe in yellow' sighted abandoned midnight past and swiftly dispersed, by which hand and to which purpose unknown. Let no townsfolk be led astray by this ELDRITCH and UNCANNY INFANT, at the cost of your mortal souls! Its FOUL and LOATHSOME SWADDLINGS will be burnt in the village green with due ceremony at 7 o'clock this eve for the good hygiene and spiritual betterment of all by order of the Monsignor of the Church of Santa Casilda."

the POV of this article encapsulates what has been wrong with the Democrats for the last quarter century. Zero accountability culture and a refusal to ever look inward to try to do better, instead blaming everyone and everything else for their ineptitude.

I love this book, but it’s hard to cram into a capsule description. It’s rich and immersive (I found in-world script and gossip rag excerpts delightful). It’s both rough and tender, with some heavy themes, but full of love and hope. And a v good cat, & a side romance I almost wish had its own book.
