forestofglorySo it's been a long time since I’ve done a short fiction post (I used to do one of these about once a month) but I’ve been reading a little bit of short fiction lately and I wanted to share some.
“If at First You Don’t Succeed, Try, Try Again,” by Zen Cho I was very excited that Zen Cho had published a new story, I love her stores so much and this one lived up to my expectations! It about Imagi and remaking your life when things don’t go as planned.
“Say it with mastodons” by Marissa Lingen A very short story about love and love and soil science.
“Compulsory” by Martha Wells New Murderbot story! Full of Murderbot goodness. If you are a Murderbot fan already you'll enjoy this little piece of its history, and if you aren’t a Murderbot fan yet this would be fine place to start.
The Thing About Ghost Stories by Naomi Kritzer Ok this a sad story about a dead mom but I’m recing it despite that because I loved it anyways. It really resonated with me.It's about a folklorist who has recently lost her mother to alzheimer's disease, and goes around collecting ghost stories. So it's also a story about why we tell ghost stories and dealing with lost.
