I will be writing a blog entry about this one tomorrow, but for now, you can catch my flash, "Shattered Moon, Hungry Sea", on @flametreepress' Myth & Fiction podcast! It's one of my favourites. open.spotify.com/episode/6VKโ€ฆ

The tower has, once again, decided that doors are optional so we are stuck inside for the foreseeable future. Luckily, we have an excellent short story to keep us company: "Cave Fish" by Autumn L. Duke crowcrosskeys.com/2026/10/17โ€ฆ

All is dark in the tower this evening. We can't be sure when the lights went out. We can only wait for them to reignite themselves. While we we wait, we're reading about other dark places... "The Dark Room" by Elica Sue crowcrosskeys.com/2026/10/14โ€ฆ

The tower has decided to exist underwater. We are supportive of all of the tower's decisions, even if they necessitate the growing of gills. We're reading poetry while we evolve. Specifically, this poem: "going under is how you surface" by Linda Kohler crowcrosskeys.com/2026/10/10โ€ฆ

Something is stirring in the woodland outside the tower. We keep hearing strange warbling, and it is getting closer. Read today's short story with us while we try not to think about what approaches. "The Hunting Dogs" by Grayson Thobe crowcrosskeys.com/2026/10/07โ€ฆ

There are shadows on the wall inside the tower. They're trying to tell us something, pointing at doorways. We're too afraid to follow. Instead, we're reading today's flash fiction: "The Absent Person" by Freddy Durbin crowcrosskeys.com/2026/10/03โ€ฆ

If you're very quiet & if you stay very still, the tower might talk to you. We can't repeat what it whispers, that's reserved for the listener, but we invite you to try for yourselves. Maybe, it'll whisper this story: "Upstairs Neighbours" by D.S. Burton crowcrosskeys.com/2026/09/30โ€ฆ

The tower is circled by trees. The circle is impenetrable. We're unsure when the trees will let us leave, but luckily, we have excellent poetry to read in the meantime. "The Fourth Sister of Eskrigg" by Paula Gilfillan crowcrosskeys.com/2026/09/23โ€ฆ

All of the taps in the tower are running with tea today. We're not complaining though. The kettle is having a well-earned day off. While we drink tea-on-tap, we're reading flash fiction: "Empty Nest Syndrome" by Mugdhaa Ranade crowcrosskeys.com/2026/09/19โ€ฆ

An entity handed us an orange earlier. It was the most perfect orange we have ever seen. We are dedicating a room in the tower to what remains of its peel. While we memorialise, why don't you read today's poem? "The Iron Queen" by Amanda Reck crowcrosskeys.com/2026/09/16โ€ฆ
