*Love* every line of this poignant tale by @tammykomoff.bsky.social, in which a mother follows her toddler through a magic hedge into possible futures...and pulls her back again. This tiny piece of prose poetry gets right to the marrow of parenthood. Give it a listen! #MomSky #SpecLit #FlashFiction
Manawaker Studio's Flash Fiction Podcast featured my short story The Hole in the Hedge last year. CB Droege did an amazing job narrating!

In the Victorian era, cities were so choked with horse manure that pedestrians could barely cross the street.
This led to the crossing sweepers: poor men, women, and even children who earned their living by clearing small patches of road with handmade brooms.

Apparently Renfield working his way up the evolutionary ladder in his cell (flies, spiders, sparrows) and going crazy in the process reflects a wider anxiety about Darwinism taking place in England at the time
Starting this in earnest and nerding out hard -- I love learning about all the little historical details, inspirations, references and such, and the annotations are rich with them. This is giving me life.
