Xanax Hamster
Xanax Hamster is your new home for horror flash fiction trunk stories: horror shorties that have been rejected a lot but just needed to find the right home. It turns out, Xanax Hamster is that home. In June and December 2024, we’re releasing two zines chock-full of brilliant and finally appreciated horror stories. Each issue features one story that’s the first pro-rate sale for an author.
