Meet My Grubby Apartment

"The Girl From Another World", my dual-barrelled take on grubby apartments and genre conventions, is live this week at Strange Horizons.

Read! Enjoy! Throw rocks, thoughts, and interesting criticism!*


*Or Batman panties if you really like it. My size is L.

In lieu of rocks or interesting criticism: That's really lovely.

Excellent story - thank you. Sad and hopeful and strange and also very neat.

I liked the tone. Also, the descriptions were very evocative: I could almost imagine I smelled the waitress and that basement. And the restaurant! I worked there once. Thank goodness it was just a crap HS job and not my sole source of income because I only lasted a month.
