So, here’s the deal. I need you to send me stories. I need you to send me poetry. The hard truth is some of it will be declined, but that’s not a referendum on you or your writing! Not everything will reveal the underside to this guy on a given day. It’s all subjective! Hallelujah!

Anyway, I currently have one—count it, one—piece in my inbox. And it just got there. So bear with me! And send me a reprint or a misfit!

In the meantime, why not check out these timeless classics:

• For poetry—

• Or explore on your own!

• You could also get to know the world of Roda and its growing collection of stories, including this one in Aphelion.

Or how about one of these other great writers on Substack—
