Holding firm to publishing in print since 2009, Blink-Ink is a tenacious quarterly of the best fiction of (approximately) 50 words or less. The theme of Issue #59 is “Bad Science,” with writing that challenges our beliefs. “People believe humans can’t move a big rock without a big machine or supernatural powers” the editors explain. “People believe ‘to evolve’ always means, ‘to get better.’ And those are just some harmless ones. Science works to correct itself; technology has overrun us, and most people believe the same pernicious nonsense people believed two hundred years ago.”

Contributors to Blink-Ink #59 sharing what they know about Bad Science include Carolyn R. Russell, Norbert Kovacs, Z.J. Lee, Katie Keridan, Clodagh O’Connor, Dart Humeston, Catfish McDaris, Sally Reno, Daryl Scroggins, Joe Hillard, Collen Addison, and many more.

“Addicted to Love” is the theme of Blink Ink #56, “The gold standard for microfiction” featuring stories of approximately 50 words. Not platonic, familial, or devotional, this is the rascal love where your heart sweats and you lose your mind. The world well lost for lust. Dreaming days followed by sleepless nights. A special someone, or just playing with the idea, the feeling.
