    2026 Poetry Anthology - Choices - **Wrap-up**

    By Valkyrie

    We had twelve poems featured for this year's poetry anthology. What a perfect way to celebrate National Poetry Writing Month! A huge thank you to all who participated by writing poems, reading, reacting, commenting, and reviewing.  Participation is what keeps these events going every year, and I know myself, for one, look forward to the anthologies all year.  I couldn't coordinate the anthologies without help, so I'd like to give a shout-out to the people who make things happen behind the scenes

Two Weeks!

There are just two weeks left to get stories sent to me for the Proof Team to review.  From the selection I've read so far, this is going to be a great anthology! The Proof Team has been hard at work, but we're always eager for more, so keep sending me your creatures to feature!   Hmmm... maybe something a bit scarier? Nah... scarier.  That'll do

September Signature Author Feature: Bonkers by JamesSavik

How about some another feature of an older story by a popular site author for our readers who might have missed it?

Length: 1,263 Description:  Two fearful boys meet an outstanding dog. Dedicated to all the dogs out there who are sometimes smarter than their boys. A Reader said: This snapshot of life creates a feel-good moment as you see a

Weekly Wrap Up (Sept. 7 - Sept. 13)

I really need to start using my calendar and putting in reminders to do the Weekly Wrap Up  Either that or retire and go to one of the homes that someone keeps pressuring me to go to   My apologies for being late again.  Let's get this done!! Monday, we had a super-duper review from @spike382 on a story that sounds very interesting. If the review doesn't grab your attention, then hopefully the story cover art  will : Tuesday, @Myr did a nice dive into the all the kissy-kissy

Nifty Archives Not So Nifty

So… the Nifty Archive isn’t feeling all that “nifty” right now. Last Wednesday morning, I submitted Chapter 25 of Swing for the Fences as usual, expecting it to be posted that evening. That’s how it has always worked in the past. But by Thursday, nothing. Other stories had gone up in the Gay Male/High School section, but mine hadn’t. I resubmitted Thursday. Still nothing. Friday came and went. Still nothing. I emailed the archive at nifty@nifty.org AND stories@nifty.org. No resp

Spooky

It’s that time where we stumble over pumpkins everywhere: on the internet, in the grocery shop, and on our neighbor’s giant inflatable witch. Let’s start early with writing about creepy creatures this year.   PT Prompt #305:   Interview with a Vampire? Boring; read the book, wore the t-shirt, watched the movies plus sequels. Yawn. You’re working for a blog, and your boss has the brilliant idea to interview a ghost. She sends you to an allegedly haunted house where y
