I’m delighted to announce that four of our contributors have been tapped to appear in the Best Microfiction 2024 anthology.

Congratulations to Audra Kerr Brown, Suzanne Hicks, Kati Bumbera, and Jon Doughboy. Here are the links to their stories:

When the Cowbirds Come to Carry Your Sister Away ~ Audra Kerr Brown

Reservoir ~ Suzanne Hicks

Lesson One: Simona ~ Kati Bumbera

Its Meanness to the World ~ Jon Doughboy

This was a real surprise because The Disappointed Housewife is an awfully small fish in the sea of literary magazines, and to see Dottie Corsair represented the array of excellent zines in the list of winning selections is truly gratifying.

If you haven’t read our winners yet, take a minute and have a look. They’re micros, but definitely worth savoring.
