Someone was asking for werewolf short stories and I thought of "The Debutante" (1939) by surrealist artist and writer Leonara Carrington, which isn't a werewolf story but almost is. Either way, you should read it (it's very short).

We're reading for our winter issue at the moment, on the theme of ✨🪞 mirrors 🪞✨

Our stories hold a mirror to ourselves and our world. In speculative fiction, the reflection may be brighter or darker or altogether altered...

Today on (Dec 8):

tzedek: the wild hunt by Elisheva Fox in Strange Horizons, Nov 2022.

A poem involving Jewish folk monsters, the American landscape + embodiment. Also " covenant-colored wings" (!) One of my favorite recent speculative poems:

I finished on November 30th and ended up with 50k of stories. I had to come up with a new story idea every day, which was really hard but got easier as the month went on. November helped me through the most uncomfortable days and reminded me that writing and imagination grow stronger the more you use them. On December 1st, I committed to a daily writing goal of 300 words. It's a tiny joy.

Apex Magazine - The Fruit of the Princess Tree by Sage Tyrtle

Today’s pick is “The Fruit of the Princess Tree” by Sage Tyrtle in @apexmagazine. In this gorgeous tale, caged princesses are suspended from branches like overripe fruit, waiting, agonizing. But then something shifts, and the value of a choice emerges, shining and true. apex-magazine.com/short-fictio
