Technically, this came out yesterday, but yesterday I was busy. Fortunately, the story hasn’t changed since then.

Thrilled to share that “Between Home and a House on Fire” is now published on Reactor (formally Tor.com

This is a special one to me. It’s about the strange complexity of emotions you have as look back at your past self. It was originally based off a failed Choose Your Own Adventure style flash piece I tried a few years ago, but it became much more in the reshaping and combination of other ideas.

I’m very grateful to Jonathan Strahan and the Tor.com team for giving this one a good home.

My soundtrack for this story was “The Fall” by Gregory Alan Isakov

I realized the other day that I haven’t done this in awhile. Here are a few favorites science fiction/fantasy stories I’ve read online over the last couple of months.

These are stories I wish I wrote, but am glad I didn’t because I probably wouldn’t have enjoyed them as much if I had.

Non-Zero Probabilities by N. K. Jemisin (this one’s been around for awhile, but I just discovered it – so it’s new to me.)
Biographical Fragments of the Life of Julian Prince by Jake Kerr
The Water That Falls on You from Nowhere by John Chu
Melancholia in Bloom by Damien Walters Grintalis
Alive, Alive Oh by Sylvia Spruck Wrigley

Lastly, I will be at Readercon this year. This is my first time going and I don’t have a set schedule, but I will probably be tweeting about panels and posting pictures. So excited!
