With an undergraduate degree in sculpture and a J.D., Carla Myers followed the most logical path to becoming a writer. In her life she's retained a significant number of body parts, but not as many as she'd hoped. She is the winner of the flash-fiction writing contests at The Gateway Review and The Columbia Journal Evolve Special Issue and a finalist for the 2018 Nancy D. Hargrove Editors' Prize for Fiction and Poetry. Her work appears in The Fabulist, The Jabberwock Review, Streetlight, Panoplyzine, Wicked Wit, Under the Gum Tree, Dreamers, Muse and The Finger. She was selected for The Sonder Review’s The Best Small Fictions Anthology 2019, was a finalist for the 47th New Millennium Writing Awards (2018) for Nonfiction and the winner of the 47th New Millennium Writing Awards (2018) for Flash Fiction. She is a 2025 Wergle Flomp Humor Poetry Contest finalist.
