In light of some magazines pulling scummy things on creators lately, I’m doing a little thread on short story rights. I don't want anybody getting taken advantage of. Also, if you're new, this stuff can be confusing!

Thank GOD for that. As long as she and the longs are doing good, you can fire vlatko a second, maybe even a third time and I'll be happy.

Star Trek first contact, seeing half assimilated crew mates with vacant stares getting led about by the borg. The horrific mutilations they weren't even aware of. Ughhh. But also, now I love it. Give me gore and dehumanization and body horror and make it wet why dontcha!

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.
Publication date: February 1, 2027

It was endlessly frustrating, even the earlier seasons (which held a lot of promise and had genuinely great moments) seemed to lose the plot by the end. In later seasons, it happened earlier and earlier; just throwing spaghetti at the wall and hoping enough stuck.

Night. The House of Chimes - a tower which you might immediately think of as Big Ben - is adrift in the River Thames. It still seems to be keeping time. In the background, a large, alien building looms over the city of London.

National violence begets violence. You cannot bomb your way out of a hole of your own blasting. Why is this so hard to understand? At nine years old I watched it play out in real time, and every day since.

Kioljin @kioljin.bsky.social · 11/09/2026
Sometimes I wonder why we can't just be kinder to one another? Defuse violence, don't escalate. I remember the bodies flung from the towers. I remember the fear I felt for my family. And as I grew, learned of US intervention in the middle east for decades, it underlined that point.

How could we possibly expect more pain to do anything but make matters worse? I was nine and it was the most obvious thing to me in the world. And in the 25 years since, I've seen this national trauma excuse death and destruction on an exponentially greater scale.

Kioljin @kioljin.bsky.social · 11/09/2026
We need to find who did this, we need to kill them, we need to do anything possible to exact vengeance. My political awakening started that day. I felt fear and helplessness like only a child could, and our government foamed at the mouth, eager to exact this fate on millions of others.

Kioljin @kioljin.bsky.social · 11/09/2026
And the narrative was who could have done this? Who do we hold accountable? Who do we need to hunt? But my day was punctuated by fear, uncertainty. I seriously thought my uncle could have been killed. I was a child and forced to face the consequences of an attack on 'home' soil.

Kioljin @kioljin.bsky.social · 11/09/2026
My parents rightly recognized that I should *not* be doing that. I was in fourth grade, what do you mean I shouldn't be watching black specks fall from the towers? I heard that my uncle was found that evening, he and a bunch of others had walked the highways until they could get rides home.

Kioljin @kioljin.bsky.social · 11/09/2026
Our homework was to take in this historic moment with our families, so being a rule-following kid, I got home and turned on the news, watching the planes hit the towers over and over. Listening to conjecture whether a missile had hit the pentagon, or if it had been another plane.

Kioljin @kioljin.bsky.social · 11/09/2026
25 years ago I was in fourth grade in SW Missouri. My teacher put the news on the TV and we all watched. When the Pentagon got hit, my parents called to have me removed from class; my uncle was working in the Pentagon and we weren't getting any news from him or others.

The data center I visited literally had electric scooters for the skeleton staff to zoom around the massive complex on. I think there were about eight folks on hand at a time and I'm talking one of the big West Coast datacenters that's been running for years.
