I brought this story into a writing workshop early in my MFA experience, and the professor hated it, but enough people encouraged me that I polished it up and submitted it anyway and it found an enthusiastic home at Sycamore Review. It was a good lesson to learn — that everything is a matter of taste! One of the encouraging people was my classmate at the time, the multi-talented artist and writer Katie Burgess, who later made me some adorable cover art that you can see at this episode's landing page. If you like short fiction, you should download Katie’s recent award winning chapbook for free! Barrington Smith-Seetachitt (that’s me!) wrote and read this story. Greg-Gordon Smith composed and engineered, and https://tedgiffin.com/category/visual-art/ created our lovely show art.
