When I started Hawthorn & Ash back in 2019, it began as something simple — a love of flash fiction and a desire to give writers a home for their shorter stories.
Seven years later we have seven volumes, a regular blog presence and a community of readers and writers I’m genuinely proud of.
But I want to be honest with you — keeping Hawthorn & Ash going while paying our writers fairly has become increasingly difficult as a small independent press running on passion alone.
So I’ve made the decision to move Hawthorn & Ash to a reader-supported subscription model. For just $5 USD per month or $50 USD per year you’ll have access to our full library of fantasy, speculative fiction and horror flash fiction — over 170 stories and everything new going forward.
If Hawthorn & Ash has ever given you a story that stayed with you, I’d love your support to keep it going.
Thank you for being here since the beginning.
