hi what are you all reading right now (books, authors, other literary magazines, exceptional takeout menus, residency application guidelines, furniture reviews)
First time having fiction in @stingingfly 🤓 which launches on Saturday @ILFDublin. It’s a short story called ‘Character Parts’.
Big thanks to Lisa McInerney for liking it and editing. Can’t wait to read the issue myself.
Here's my essay on indigestion and its bizarre (and deep) literary history. Went down every rabbit hole, from Whitman to Beckett to laxative advertising (latter two are curiously related). Thanks to the excellent, patient folks @VQR and to @Longreads

Dream of the decade: to have a story in the @parisreview. 🫠
Issue 250 launches today. Pick it up from good bookshops or online.
Huge thanks to Emily Stokes and Harriet Clark for the *exceptional* editing, and to @BillClegg_ x
Highly rec this beautiful novel—THE LILAC PEOPLE by Milo Todd—about the experience & prosecution of trans people during WW2. This novel does what the very best historical does—provide a timeless account of humanity that speaks to our present moment. 4/29/25, @CounterpointLLC.
