Goldfish Grimm’s Issue 20 is out! Includes “The Call of Gold Cat”
Issue 20 of Goldfish Grimm’s Spicy Fiction Sushi is out! Includes my weird short story “The Call of Gold Cat”, plus an interview. This short story was heavily workshopped at Scribophile. Thank you to all the readers who provided guidance.
Issue also includes new flash fiction from Mari Ness, “Survival.”
Holy Table-of-Contents mates!
I hope you enjoy this raw fresh fiction. It’s good for you!
