Two Flash and One Poem

November is a great month to cozy up and indulge in some shorts reads. As the weather changes and becomes crispier and cooler, you can hibernate with some amazing reading material.

This week, we’re showcasing somber, reflective works.

The first piece listed below is by Madeline Anthes, who writes amazing ghost stories and who we’ve mentioned before.

The second piece is by Exodus Octavia Brownlow, whose use of long titles has become part of her signature style as has her thoughtful writing.

Lastly, we’ve shared a poem about the month of November by Lisel Mueller, which we hope you will love as much as we do.

Let us know in the comments, which piece is your favourite. We’d love to hear your thoughts.
