My shattering and beautiful slipstream prose poem “The Oubliette” (written Winter 2024) from my ongoing “All Islands are Hydra” cycle will be in this issue. This one was difficult to submit and share with the universe as it’s from my heart/soul.

BFB5 coming May 28th!! Lucas Kurz is back again with another beautiful cover! The story this cover is inspired by is "Idesvied Defied" by Charlie Winter. We absolutely adore Lucas's work and love how this one turned out -- cute and cozy but still with an underlining moodiness. 📚🪐 💀
Cover of Baubles From Bones Issue 5. Wrapped in a velvet cape, a boy king sits criss-cross, holding a kitten while two others lay beside him. The boy king has a soft look of surprise on his face as he looks up and out of frame.

ATLANTA - The family of a 30-year-old metro Atlanta mother and nurse said she was declared brain dead more than 90 days ago - but is still being kept alive because she's pregnant.

Adriana Smith, a registered nurse at Emory University Hospital, was nearly nine weeks pregnant in early February when she started experiencing intense headaches. According to her mother, April Newkirk, Smith sought treatment at Northside Hospital but was released after being given medication.

Rage!! hired to edit/proof “sword and sorcery” genre and am fired because I use Sprague-de Camp (“whodat?”😡 really?!?!?) as the style guide and do “Show, Don’t Tell”/count “goo”/“ooze” as redundant synonyms and there’s 54 uses of “good” as filler in 62 pages- don’t hire me! I’ve standards. #Writers
