Due to unforeseen health issues impacting our team, the release of Wishbone Words Issue 16 is delayed until May 2026. We fully expect to return to our regular publishing schedule with Issue 17. P.S. The call for Issue 17 cover art submissions is still open! forms.gle/HLSsi8uJC1hh...

The background fades from yellow on the left edge to orange in the center and pink on the right edge, littered with pale white and pale rainbow stars. Black text in the center, slightly tilted to the left, reads "still accepting issue 17 cover art." Above and below the text are graphics of black swirled lines and diamond-shaped stars.

A poem from @wishbonewords.bsky.social Issue 15 with acknowledgements to #GillianClarke and #VelimirKhlebnikov. Though mostly recognising the master of time, #VelimirKhlebnikov who knew a lot, an awful lot, about critical junctures in life. #teenagepregancy #poetrybluesky #poetrytransitions

Teenage Pregnancy

Here comes the
changing of the clocks
inside me.
Counting down the hours,
minutes, seconds.
Breathe, not breathe;
step, not step.
There are no
smoothed boulders, gateposts.
This is the time!
How can I, we, not exist;
we are here
already.
Us, two of us.
Measuring our existence,
flashing eyes ablaze.

June is turning out to be a real writing month!! Absolutely delighted that a little piece of flash fiction I wrote about my dog Ollie will be appearing in Issue 16 of the wonderful @wishbonewords.bsky.social later this year!

A screenshot from an email, reading: Hi Amelia, Thank you for sharing your writing with us. We are delighted to accept your piece "Vigilance" for Issue 16 of Wishbone Words Magazine, publishing in November of this year. Congratulations and welcome to the Wishbone family. We are so excited to publish your work.
