@christinehanolsy.comReposted by @gavagai.com"The Tarnished Knife" (@gavagai.com, February 2026) is about who is expendable and who deserves to be loved. "Witch" is just another name for a woman who knows her worth.

@horrorsong.blogReposted by @gavagai.comPleased and downright fascinated to read a review of my short story "Take Him" in Brief Ecology. The story was recently an editor's pick on @gavagai.com & I'll confess it was very difficult to place & rejected many times, which makes the interest and attention of the reviewer especially lovely.
Amazing story published today from @muteddragon.bsky.social . Check it out at the link below!
