Not Another War Story — Line Of Advance Literary Journal

The youngest of the grandchildren was the Old Man’s favorite. Each weekend the Boy would visit and each weekend his grandpa would have a new VHS tape for them to watch together, just the two of them....

My favorite part about nearing the end of a writing project is when I convince myself I am the shittiest writer in history and wasted a massive chunk of time I will never get back

Here’s another exercise I find to be helpful. Stole this from someone and I don’t remember who so if you recognize it, let me know!

I do something I call karaoke when I get like this. Take one of my favorite stories and rewrite it, paragraph by paragraph. Usually come away with an insight into how different elements come together to make the magic.

We don't wanna brag but we think we publish some of the best new fiction around. Take that, Paris Review, ha ha Here's Jesse Rowell w/ "Second Skin": "Alpert Nelsen had lost a toe. He just didn't know it yet." wrath-bearingtree.com/2024/0…

New Fiction by Jesse Rowell: "Second Skin" - Wrath-Bearing Tree

Alpert Nelsen had lost a toe. He just didn’t know it yet. Not a big toe. One of the smaller ones. It got infected when he kicked a roll of fencing after his cameraman deleted the interview footage....

Lucas Randolph read a poem about his exposure to the burn pits on deployment, in an offsite reading at #AWP24, which by all accounts was stunning. You can read him here in @WrathBT, "Boys Play Dress-Up": wrath-bearingtree.com/2023/0…

New Fiction from Lucas Randolph: "Boys Play Dress Up" - Wrath-Bearing Tree

a friend's grandpa, the Boy learned that the grandpa liked watching football games on the weekends instead of the black and white western movies.

Big shout-out to @LKDolph for his powerful poetry last night at the Spokes Cafe. @LaurenKayJ and I were blown away by that ash flake on your tongue, Lucas, your courageous and spellbinding long poem about toxic exposure. @antiochmfa #MilitaryWriting #AWP24
