"In my head, I am telling her the exact slate blue of the whale, exact slow rotation of her eye. Gorgeous death, sighing sea air—sky pink..." Powerful and heartbreaking, this story in @FracturedLit Anthology by @elissafield

2024 Anthology winner by @elissafield "Beatriz had been insisting since waking that we go to the house at the top of our road, on the rise above the sea. I was barely moving—even a four-year-old should sense something amiss..." fracturedlit.com/could-die-for-…

So happy my story "Foretold" found new life in @nationalflashfd! Thanks to the editors for this wonderful event. So many stunning stories in the Flood. This is one of the first flashes I wrote a long time ago in a brilliant @kathyfish workshop.
