Creative Nonfiction from Christy Tending has made a delicious and dangerous impression on us. Caution: "It Explodes." https://citronreview.com/2022/09/23/it-explodes/ #amreading #litmags

Did you know that Mondays are better with brief literature? We heard that somewhere. Case in point, this little poem from Gunilla Theander Kester, "The Long and Short Vowels." https://citronreview.com/2022/06/22/the-long-and-the-short-vowels/

He received his MFA in creative writing from @AmericanUniversity, in Washington, D.C., where he teaches writing.

This Winter Issue is full of brilliant micros. One stellar example is "The Proper Way to Peel an Orange" by Exodus Oktavia Brownlow. https://citronreview.com/2021/12/22/the-proper-way-to-peel-an-orange/ #amreading #litmags

Stephanie Grand allows us to look back at the classics, but the micro, "Why It Doesn't Hurt When You Say I've Changed" is anything but rooted in the past. Come walk the river with us. https://citronreview.com/2021/12/22/why-it-doesnt-hurt-when-you-say-ive-changed/ #amreading #litmags

Stephen D. Gibson's micro "Portrait of My Father upon his 70th Birthday" really lights up our Winter Issue. https://citronreview.com/2021/12/22/portrait-of-my-father-upon-his-70th-birthday/ #amreading #litmags
