★ Featured Writers

Ralph Serpe is a writer, artist, and musician.

His short story, ‘The Blind Date’ takes a humorous look at the unspoken ‘get out’ clause …

Our Favourite Quote from ‘The Blind Date’:

After twenty minutes of listening to Chip talking to the cat, Kim had enough of being ignored. A quick text message was sent, followed by barking and scratching from the hallway. It was time for the exit plan to commence.

Erohtar Isnam is a poet with a specialist interest in fantasy, horror, and ‘occasional’ political blogs.

‘Moon Side’ is a deeply reflective piece between the author and the moon …

Our Favourite Quote from ‘Moon Side’:

It smells sweet and tastes sour Leaks fresh blood that then And still irrigates my garden. The blood I see in dreams every night A dream full of roses Each one with thorns That gives me fragrant home

Passarozumbido is a poet who’s also a ‘recovering perfectionist’ and ‘honorary member’ of the club for the ‘perennially searching’.

‘Best Place to Work’ is a fascinating insight into the mechanisms of PR narratives and workplace decision-making in the corporate culture of India.

Our Favourite Quote from ‘Best Place to Work’:

The quote is too stiff and impersonal. It needs to sound more empathetic and holistic.

Overall, the PR needs more meat. Call out the policy changes PC has introduced and make him the story’s hero. Remove too much LGBT stuff and speak about overall diversity and HR policies.

K Joseph is not only a writer whose creativity ‘bursts’ from her but a Change Management Leader sharing her ideas to navigate through work and life.

‘This Morning, You Tapped Me’ is a poem that celebrates finding the Muse …

Our Favourite Quote from ‘This Morning, You Tapped Me’:

My feet moved with a singular purpose Carrying me quickly to my writing spot.

I inhaled deeply and exhaled slowly.

Sujit Chakraborty’s ‘Moral of the Story’ reflects on responsibility and acceptance.

Our Favourite Quote from ‘Moral of the Story’:

And of course, it was my mistake! I am the only one who is fully responsible for all these fiascos.

Erohtar Isnam is a poet with a specialist interest in fantasy, horror, and ‘occasional’ political blogs.

‘A Tragedy’ questions the labels we put on birth and death.

Our Favourite Quote from ‘A Tragedy’:

But what is a bigger tragedy than

entering a world without consent,

being held by arms you don’t recognize

and moulded into so many shapes

Susi Moore is a published author, former English teacher and Creative Writing instructor. She’s the founder and Editor for both The Scriber’s Nook and MuserScribe.

Her poem, ‘Pillow Talk ’ reflects on, well, pillow talk!

Our Favourite Quote from ‘Pillow Talk’

We softly speak Murmured musings Starfire dreamings Moonlight weavings
