Milk Candy Review is a journal of flash fiction that publishes one story a week on Thursdays.
They also offer two-question interviews from participating writers the Monday after their story is published!
They cherish all the stories, and are so happy for every contributor when their beautiful work is recognized!
Milk Candy Review is curated by Cathy Ulrich, founding editor and sole staff member.
She loves flash fiction and Chinese milk candies. She loves other things too, but only those two seem relevant. Send your beautiful stories her way!
