And we’re open @variantlit.bsky.social for poetry and prose (3-micro series, flash up to 1500 words and fiction up to 20 pages)! Please submit only once through 12/31 unless invited otherwise. Can’t wait to read your lovelies!
And that’s a wrap on semester two ✌🏻
Good morning! While we get ourselves set up over, if you've ever been published in Variant Lit, could you leave us a like? We want to make sure that we're up to date with your pubs!!
Hi! 👋🏻
for anyone trying to extricate yourself from the clutches of Amazon: bookstores make more than a third of their money between now & New Year’s, & most bookstores ship nationwide 💌

NEW POEM #86: "Poem Beginning with a Ballerina Music Box and Ending In a Field of Sunflowers" by Erica Abbott (@erica-abbott.bsky.social)
"I’m sure there’s
an equation to determine the rate
at which a girl will spill herself
at the wicked hands of weak men."
