This is one of my most favorite-est stories I've written, well-loved by editors and landed in just the right place. Thanks, @adventitiouswords.bsky.social, for giving Big Cushy a home.

(Catching up!) My folksy horror story “The Poppet” has dropped in this beautiful brand-new anthology put out by Tyche Books. I’ve long had the idea of a strange, mute puppet of a man made of meat. What resulted is dark, poetic, and brutal, but with maybe a light left on at the end? (Maybe.)

Words I had to add to Word's spellcheck dictionary for Issue 5 because of @jennifleck.bsky.social: "I'd've" "boi" "DM'd" "unfuckable" and I learned that Word doesn't know what an omelette is.

Very excited for this! I really went to dark and dirty places in this story based on my real life side hustle...

Wild horses and wild young girls convene and merge, a sun-drenched tale that sprang fully-fleshed to run roughshod through my imagination. Really can't quite call this one fiction... Thank you to @smallwondersmag.com for having "The Horses and Ponies of 8th Avenue" aboard. I hope you enjoy!

Contract signed, so I can announce happily that my horror story "The Foundling" will be appearing in the Spring 2026 issue of Chthonic Matter Quarterly! Let me tease in advance: just because something's cute and free doesn't mean you should take it home. 😉😱

Jennifer Lesh Fleck @jennifleck.bsky.social · 27/06/2025

Preorders are now open for Modern Mummies from Cat Eye Press. Fresh, new horror tales, including one by yours truly that's sure to create a "buzz"... *wink-wink* It'll be just the book to tuck into cozily as summer breathes its last gasp! 🐝🍯 Grab your copy today from @cateyepress.bsky.social

"I don’t have a terminal illness. I have an interminable one. Decades still ahead, predictable ones in which my body fights with itself, breaks itself down" This piece from @jennifleck.bsky.social spoke to me so deeply. Not enough flash being published about the reality of long-term illness.

Jennifer Lesh Fleck @jennifleck.bsky.social · 07/06/2025

This was a nice surprise! "Vestigial" is in this latest fiction round-up, as is my TOC-buddy from the same issue of Inner Worlds, @hannahgreer.bsky.social! Give us a read! (After perusing content warnings, ahem. :))))

Jennifer Lesh Fleck @jennifleck.bsky.social · 07/06/2025

People are totally weirded-out and also enjoying* my horror story that just dropped in Inner Worlds! Give it a read, if you dare. *I don't know if that's the correct word...maybe appreciating? Enduring, mind and soul remaining mostly intact??
