Unfortunately, Capsule Stories will be on hiatus for the foreseeable future, and we’ve made the difficult decision to cancel the Lost in Translation edition.

Thank you to everyone who has submitted over the years, the wonderful writers we’ve published, and the amazing team of readers who have made Capsule Stories so amazing! We hope to be back someday to bring you more beautiful writing. For now, we'll be in hibernation. 😴

The charge of daylight brings morning.
From the unmoving dust, I see time,
which has passed and settled and set

This happened to us too! 🤦♀️ Apologies to the submitters who got the weird "applicant" autoreply!
3 Apr 2023
Glitch alert! Recently, Submittable changed the wording of its response templates to "Dear Applicant." We, along with many other journals, have just now seen this. We know you're not an applicant; if you have been walking around for days thinking you are, we apologize.

today’s forecast called for snow,
a prediction indifferent
to the calendar’s early border for spring,
as well as to my own personal feelings on the matter.
winter has these silences
hidden between the refrains
of wind pushing past pine, through buildings, rattling
windows & bones
