  • Issue 4 October 1, 2019
    WELCOME! Issue 4 October 1, 2019 Welcome to Fleas on the Dog! We’re a no frills brown bag BYOW(eed) online lit rag. (We like to think we’re underground with our heads sticking out.). We don’t care about pretty pictures or fancy layouts. We’re interested in one thing and one thing only: GOOD WRITING. Our sole mandate is quality which means if your mother likes your writing we probably won’t. With this issue we are introducing 2 new categories. The first is Poetry. We were deluged with it even though we only call for short fiction and nonfiction. Apart from the obscene sonnets we carved into washroom walls, we don’t know a heck of a lot about it. (The Wasteland is an album by U2, right?) So we coerced, no, invited, bardo-bard Hezekiah Scretch to abase himself as our Poetry Editor. The fact that he despises verse of any kind is only important if you’re a nitpicker. And so the dude quintet has become the dude sextet. The other new category is Plays (Drama). Since all six of us agreed that Shakespeare’s Death of a Salesman is our all-time favourite comedy, we knew we were on the right track. Besides, what Streetcar wouldn’t Desire such a category? So if your name’s Sam Shepard or David Mamet (and even if it isn’t) you’re welcome to submit your play, previously performed or perennially rejected. We’re proud to announce two writers are making their publishing debut in Issue 4.

  • {PDF EPUB} His Accidental Boyfriend by Tragen Moss Series / Everything's Gonna Be Okay
    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} His Accidental Boyfriend by Tragen Moss Series / Everything's Gonna Be Okay. When his father announces that he's terminally ill, Nicholas Moss finds himself caring for his two half-sisters, autistic Matilda and temperamental Genevieve. Hilarity Ensues as Nicholas finds he has to grow up quickly. This series contains examples of: Affair? Blame the Bastard: When they were younger, Nicholas resented the hell out of Matilda and Genevieve because Matilda's birth caused his dad to move to Los Angeles. For her part, Genevieve resented Nicholas for years because their father doted on him as a compensation for all the time he spent caring for Matilda. Affectionate Nickname: Nicholas regularly uses "babe" as an affectionate towards his sisters. Genevieve later calls Tellulah "babe" while apologizing for getting her in a jam. Bad Bedroom, Bad Life: Matilda's filthy bedroom in the otherwise-clean Moss house is a fairly apt metaphor for the fact that despite the fact that she's able to project the image of a "high-functioning" autistic, she has only the barest idea of how to actually take care of herself. Or possibly it's a metaphor for the cost of her efforts to make herself seem "normal"; in later episodes, after she starts dating Drea and thus has less reason to hide her autism, her room is noticeably cleaner. Naomi Campbell pens moving tribute to godson Harry Brant after accidental overdose. Naomi Campbell is breaking her silence on the death of her godson, Harry Brant, a rising model who died from an accidental drug overdose on Sunday at age 24.
