@MHuggins99 I miss the quail so much

I wrote this little list for @Orion_Magazine a while back. Their enumeration pieces are always a fun in-class exercise!

When my husband is out of town, I try really hard not to choke on my pizza bagels.

@monetwithlove what's the food like?

[Cynthia Brandon-Slocum @CBrandonSlocum]

@BeingandZoe @SundogLit Is it if I wrote it and don't know what you mean?

[Cynthia Brandon-Slocum @CBrandonSlocum]

Writer friends, you should grab a partner and do this cheap contest. I'm not judging submissions, plus they're reading anonymously, so knowing me isn't weird (or, at least, it's not any more weird than usual.)

It's coming! Our annual Collaboration Contest opens on July 15th, & we're pleased to provide 10 fee waivers for A.L.A.N.A. (African, Latinx, Asian, Native American) &/or Trans Writers. See this hot little link for more details! 🦋

We hope you know how much we love reading your work. We also know there are others of you out there who would love to join us and do the same.

Just a reminder, in other words, that we're still in the market for two nonfiction editors. C'mon and apply! https://t.co/TMtGzW9FJu

@JferHow I know the feeling--saw my rolling pin in a TV show this week (won't admit which one).

@angermonsoon @katiedublinski @GraywolfPress #1: Yessssssss!
#2: Is this photo taken on your car floor mats?

[Cynthia Brandon-Slocum @CBrandonSlocum]

@monetwithlove Would be stale tomorrow anyway. You had no choice.

I've wanted to place an essay in Water~Stone Review ever since I read Naomi Shihab Nye's "Someone I Love" in their 2003 issue. If you're in Minneapolis, come see me read a bit from my piece at this year's reading/reception!

[Water~Stone Review @WSRLitJournal]

Join us on Friday, November 15 for the reading and reception of Vol 22 "TENDING TO FIRES."

I mean, if you heard the songs I was playing, it could be considered a charitable donation.
