Eugenia by Susan Holcomb She’s a poet and a bass guitarist, the coolest in my LA mommies group, and someday soon: a breakout late-in-life pop star. “I could be like a female Leonard Cohen,” she tells me one day at the park…

The Bright Jars of Our Bodies by Sara Hills When we run out of nice things to say to each other, Gil and I watch TV like we’re each just a brain in a jar, sitting side by side. Except instead of brains we’re hearts. And by hearts, I mean sex…

I didn’t get a story submitted this year but there’s still time if you’ve got one. Frogtober is pretty much my favorite lit mag issue of the year. It’s consistently amazing and such a delightful change of pace. I look forward to it every autumn.

Shoot your shot! 🐸 🏀 👻

Thanks so much, Barlow! This means a lot to the frogs! 🐸💙

I mean. @sarahillswrites.bsky.social in @flashfrog.bsky.social. She’s so amazing 🤩 “we fuck on the sofa like we’re trying to make something, turn straw into gold, or power the grid single-handedly.”

Thanks so much for reading and sharing!!

Just reread this. @sarahillswrites.bsky.social is such a master at the flash form. If you haven't already read this story, check it out. And cheers to @flashfrog.bsky.social for continuing to bring the best stories to us!

Thanks so much for all your reading and support, Myna!! 🐸💙

I say, Yeah, but cancer, because that’s all I can think to add. Then I remember cancer is a constellation, so I squint at the stars some more, but all I see is a mess of white dots, blinking and unblinking. Gorgeous @sarahillswrites.bsky.social @flashfrog.bsky.social

“I keep picturing my mother stepping up and my father whirling her around, kissing like nothing else mattered, two hearts inside the same jar, lit from the inside”

Just BEAUTIFUL. @sarahillswrites.bsky.social @flashfrog.bsky.social ❤️
