If you loved @maddieanthes’s terrific new story “Girls in the Woods” as much as we did (you can read it here: https://t.co/IhzMmHFAEa), be sure to check out her other great work in @xraylitmag, @jmwwjournal, @AtlasAndAlice, @CleaverMagazine, and @hystericalrag. #flashfiction

In case it's not super obvious, we think you should #VoteTuesday. Women, non-binary and trans folks especially need to be heard right now. It's the simplest thing you can do to reclaim power for yourself and other marginalized communities. Don't get discouraged. Get angry. VOTE.
