How do I write when I don’t know what I am feeling? How do I manage my feelings, so they don’t divert my creative focus? Can I use discrete emotion theory to know better myself? What are your favorite emotional descriptors today? open.substack.com/pub/nikkibra...

Pretty sure the lady next to me on the airplane watched me remove, add, and remove the same word to the first paragraph of a short story one dozen times. And now she knows what it is truly like to be a writer.

If you ask me for the definition of a short story, I will stammer out a novel-length answer. This month, I assess four short stories and, through comparison, evaluate a metaphor as definition.

Hi Rina! Enjoyed meeting you at World Fantasy (during the mass signing; I’m one of Fran Wilde’s students.) Excited to see that the next @sfinsfevents.bsky.social is with Rick Wilber, another one of my favorite teachers!

Just heard @mariecroke.bsky.social read the first half of “Your Space Between” at World Fantasy, and I’m deeply worried about the psychological implications of trapping your sibling in a spatial distortion closet. Check it out from APEX at apex-magazine.com/short-fictio...!

Hearing @tkrex.bsky.social read “Hi from Shelling Point” at the World Fantasy Convention brought joy to my morning. Check it out in the October/November issue of Utopia Science Fiction Magazine. You will have so many laughs and feels.
