forestofgloryI'm not a systematic short fiction reader. I read look through a few online 'zines semi-regularly and read things that look interesting. Well, at lest I bookmark them to read latter. I'm not quite caught up with my to-read book mark folder. Nonetheless we are about half way through 2014 (where does the time go?) and I think it time to talk about some the excellent I've been reading. So here are some links to things published this year that I've read and enjoyed. I've included the 1st line of each story to give you taste.
The Suitcase Aria by Marissa Lingen "I was in my dressing room putting on my makeup when Lukas came to tell me about the body in the canals."
21 Steps to Enlightenment (Minus One)by LaShawn M. Wanak "When a spiral staircase appears in front of you, don't panic."
The Cartography of Sudden Death by Charlie Jane Anders "Ythna came to the Beldame’s household when she was barely old enough to walk."
The Unfathomable Sisterhood of Ick by Charlie Jane Anders "After Roger broke up with Mary, she only had two places to go."
So Sharp That Blood Must Flow by Sunny Moraine "In the end, the water goes black with the witch’s blood."
Autodidact by Benjanun Sriduangkaew "On Srisunthorn Station, the corpses of conquered stars are nurtured into ships."
If you've read any of these or read them because of this post, let me know what you think.
Also I've love to hear about other awesome short fiction you've read recently.
