'Aoife's Kiss' don't usually publish flash fiction within their covers, but they liked my piece called 'HER EYES STILL GREEN' - liked it so much that they have scooped it up. It is a piece based on reports made by two medieval monks on The Green Children of Wolfpit. According to the monks, two children, skin as green as moss, climbed out of a pit where the bodies of dead wolves were thrown. They spoke in a tongue no one recognised. They were taught 'English' and were eventually able to report that they came from a twilight place called St Martin's Land, where everything was bathed in a pale green light. It was thought that they came from the moon or some land of faerie.
'Aoife's Kiss' will publish my flash fiction story in their December issue.

Cognrats, that's wonderful, it sounds like a fascinating story. And good for you for spreading the wonders of flash fiction to as-yet-uninitiated publications! Looking forward to reading it. Onloine or print??
Thanks, Tania, for popping by.
Aoife's Kiss is both an online and a print mag... I am not sure which has taken my flash... or maybe both? I think it is a Canadian operation. Once it is published (December) if you are not able to access it I will send you a copy of the wee story. (unless you want to e-mail directly to my hotmail address and I can send you a 'sneak preview' by private e-mail - so that it is not out there in the public domain.)
Best
