Please enjoy! I got to play with some of my favorite anime tropes – an overpowered child lost in another world. I hope you like it >:)

It's been a while since I shared "Lucinda Espinosa's Twenty-Seventh Death," but if you'd like to read a story Locus rec'd as "a heartbreaking story beautifully told," Reactor called a must-read, and Amazing Stories reviewed as "one of the most original stories I've ever read," you can find it here!

What does jive turkeys, boomboxes, and moonflowers have in common? Guess you'll have to find out in the #35issue of @fiyahlitmag.bsky.social The Time Grandma Jumped into the Lake and Transformed into a Kung Fu Warrior is a Black Isekai. One that you'll love and get sucked into via water dragon. 🐉
