My newest publication out today in miniMag. Picture of page 16 & 17 attached to this post, or you can read it in the PDF at the link below.

This was based on a prompt of science fiction, on a pirate ship, with botox, and had to be under 300 words.

Who would ever think I'd be hoping for more rejections 🤣

But I'm not complaining about the acceptances!

And with each rejection, I learn something about my writing and strengthen it.

I didn't win The Scribes Prize, but I'm still a winner for having two stories make it to the final round 🙂 To read the other stories that DID win, visit https://www.fairfieldscribes.com/issue-34.html

"Sticks and Stones" made it to the top 5% of the competition. 3 of the 7 judges voted yes and it was a very close call. They have asked to publish in their November issue. In the meantime, you can find it here: https://101words.org/sticks-and-stones-2/
Comments from the judges:
1) Very well executed narrative that builds up appropriately to the twist at the end and maintains its overall tone. I truly enjoyed reading this story.
2) Wonderful writing and a great twist at the end.

"Tick Tock" made it to the top 15% of the competition. To read this piece, visit here: https://www.fridayflashfiction.com/100-word-stories/tick-tock-by-kim-kjagain-moes
Comments from the judges:
1) This story tells depths in such a succinct way. I think it's perfect for readers to get the entire narrative and not have any question as to what is going on or the emotions being conveyed.
2) A lifetime told in about 100 words. A story filled with emotion that is easily conveyed to the reader - very well done.

Back to writing!

Today at @afterpastreview

The Last Second Chance

I wrote this one back in 2014 or 2015 for the NYC Midnight Flash Fiction contest. It placed in the top 5 that round. Now, after several rejections and significant edits, she has found her acceptance.

And another one today @afterpastreview

Thicker Than Water

My first attempt at magic realism, due to the prompt at The Writing Battle this summer. Made it through a few rounds but fell short before hitting the semi-finals.
Enjoy :)
