I lied. Writing's a bitch.

[Bug Norman @BugNorman]

The process of writing these past few days has been new, unique, and immensely gratifying.

Follow the voices in your head! Right now they're just screaming but if you can get them to talk to each other, you can write a whole book!

If I am made in God's image, then does that mean that God also gets anxious in a busy grocery store?

[Taco Bell Quarterly @TBQuarterly]

Do you enjoy extreme feelings of suspense and not really knowing whether it's ever going to be worth it? Become a writer.

[Bug Norman @BugNorman]

I will never get over the fact that someone published a short story that uses the phrase "Gerard Way's Left Testicle" six different times, AND that they paid me $16.00 for it.

ISSUE 6 IS HERE! #OFICMAG6

What a joy putting together this issue was. From daddy kinks to trans vampires to an alcohol that gets you drunk before you drink it, this issue touches on the wacky, wild, and wonderful that we love to see.

I would be writing more but I am drowning in accidental foster kitties.

[Bug Norman @BugNorman]

Just found a home for my weird little story about punk kids, aliens, and definitely-not-Taco Bell with @OFICmag. Couldn't be happier!

I got catcalled by the school bus driver of the Christian elementary school up the road. That venn diagram of machismo culture and Christianity is sometimes a circle.

[Bug Norman @BugNorman]

Any poetry book recs? Trying to expand my reading.

[Bug Norman @BugNorman]

@masonmennenga A weird mix of The Bloodstone Chronicles and The Cooper Kids series for me.

It's a small hill, but I'm willing to die on it.

[Bug Norman @BugNorman]

Me: Thanks for considering my work. Just FYI, I preferred to be called by my nickname/penname in professional writing settings.

Them: Got it, Name-on-Birth-Certificate!

My friend makes up her own genres of music. She is currently listening to "80s fever dream" music and I, apparently, am into "2000s shithead" songs.

[Bug Norman @BugNorman]

@awritingwall @lavbonesmag Okay, you got me. That sounds interesting.

[Bug Norman @BugNorman]

@tempestaurora what a fuckin' mood

The secondary joke here is that I need to edit this tweet.

[Bug Norman @BugNorman]

Me, edit my own horror writing: "Oh my god, what's wrong with this bitch?"

[Bug Norman @BugNorman]

@TBQuarterly oh shit
