Goldfish
by Pia Quintano
Julia Rose Merante recently adopted a tuxedo cat named Eleanor, folds her laundry against her will, and has killed every plant she’s ever owned. After finishing law school in New York, Julia regained the brainpower to reignite her love for creative writing. Her work has found homes in various literary magazines, such as LandLocked, Praire Margins, Gandy Dancer, Glass Mountain, 30 North, and others. Most notably, she received an award from the Poet Laureate of Arkansas. She could not feel more indebted to you for reading her words today.
Pia Quintano is an NYC-based writer/artist who especially likes to work with animals. Her paintings were sold at the Frank J. Miele Contemporary American Folk Art Gallery in NYC until it closed.
