Dear lit mag editors, Please think carefully before sending out acceptances. Do not send out an acceptance followed by a rejection because a reader voted against the piece. This is beyond disappointment and terribly unprofessional.

I received several notes of concern from many FF editors about this piece. Sharing it here with a trigger warning. Dear readers, I would appreciate your thoughts #flashfiction #Reading #sylviaplath rb.gy/b9jrj2
