And here’s flash piece a little sillier than Bookish Tastes but still with plenty of Tolkien references to go around.

Publication Day: Bookish Tastes
I have a new story out on Small Wonders today. This one is somewhat personal. The dynamic between Bernadette and her father around books is lifted from my own life.
Reprint Day: Which World Ending Nightmare Are You?
Issue 4 of Archive of the Odd is out today. They specialize in stories in disguise as found object and the art design of the magazine reflects that. My story Which Wold Ending Nightmare Are You? was reprinted in the issue and I love the layout they used, See page one below.

Publication Day: Dad and Ick
My latest story is out in Nature Futures as of today! Nature stories are free to read for a limited time after they’re published, so if you want to read it do it sooner than later.
Sometimes technology is frustrating and sometimes it is less frustrating if I think of it as an easily distracted toddler.
UPDATE! Nature allows the author of their stories to share them for free via PDF. So If you can no longer read the story at the link above it is available here. Dad and Ick PDF
Looking over the blog, it looks like I forgot to post another story that came out last year. So here is a bonus, very short story for you. https://flashinaflash.tumblr.com/post/698104361357819904/do-not-ignore-this-plea-the-mother-spider-is
Publication Day: Can Anyone Tell Me What Kind of Moth This Is?
Another new story is out today. It can be read on Flash Fiction Online. If you have a problem with Flying insects you may want to skip this one. Can Anyone Tell Me What Kind of Moth This Is?
Publication Day: Which World Ending Nightmare Are You?
My latest story is out today in If There’s Anyone Left Volume 3. The ebook is available here
Which World Ending Nightmare are You? is the story in the form of a test you never knew you needed. If what you needed is to find out what kind of apocalypse you embody that is.
Publication Day: Such Sweet Sorrow, Jeeves
I have a drabble (100 word story) in issue 19 of Fairfield Scribes. This is probably the nerdiest thing I’ve ever written, being both a send up of Shakespeare and P.G. Wodehouse.
Publication Day: Guard of the Crossing
My story, Guard of the Crossing, went live this week on Manawaker Studio’s Flash Fiction Podcast.
This story was previously published on SIc Semper Serpent’s Patreon page, so this is its first public outing. And its first audio publication. I really enjoy hearing my stories read by voices other than my own. I think the narrator hit it out of the park.
Publication Day: The Numbers
It’s my first published story of 2021!
Check it out on Daily Science Fiction! https://dailysciencefiction.com/science-fiction/virtual-reality/susan-taitel/the-numbers_SF
When I wrote The Numbers in 2019, I had no idea how much a year plus of social distancing would make the mood of this story so relatable. At least to me.
