BELLADONNA

BELLADONNA

BELLADONNA a new collection of microfiction, flash fiction, and art by Autumn Bettinger... Friendly Monster Press is so excited to be working with Autumn on this project. We feel that microfiction and flash fiction are genres that haven't been delved into enough, and Autumn is an absolute natural at the short formats. Her work is brimming with living energy, in prose that seems like it was first written in tidy cursive, each word carefully shaped into either a flower or a dagger. The stories emerge in every shape and size, with details as numerous and surprising as any garden should provide. Expect BELLADONNA January 2026.
