swan_towerI mentioned at the start of this month that I had a new flash story in Lightspeed; now it is free to read online! Or you can follow the same link to listen to it instead, narrated by Stefan Rudnicki. As the title implies, "I Cut Off a Monster’s Arm. AITA?" is modeled after the type of Reddit post where someone posts about an incident in their life, seeking reassurance that they're not the one at fault in that situation (or sometimes confirmation that, yeah, they done screwed up). It's also one of a small but possibly growing number of flash stories I've written based around Japanese yōkai tales -- the third one will be out at the end of this month or the beginning of the next!
As usual, you can buy the entire issue of Lightspeed containing my story for $4.99, or subscribe for a whole year at $41.92. It's great to be able to read things free online, but it's also great for the magazines that publish them to be able to stay in business!
