Reviews of the Shower

[leahbobet]

"Parable of the Shower" is starting to get some reviews, and I have saved up enough in a tidy little stack to share with you, since you are all clearly on the edges of your seats over this matter.

Free SF Reader, in its usual cryptic fashion, gives the story 3 out of 5 stars.

Joe Sherry at Adventures in Reading says nice things, including that it is a delightful story, which warms my little shriveled heart.

And, Kathryn Cramer is a fan of the opening line, using it to demonstrate a point about narrative hooks and setting reader expectations at the outset, which is very flattering. There is also a picture from Ad Astra here, wherein I am drinking something with Watts and Dave Nickle, whose collection is coming out from ChiZine Publications and is well worth your inspection.

As for the rest of it, my garden looks lovely right now, there will be pasta for dinner, I'm going swing dancing with ksumnersmith and cszego tonight, and there are two things that are deeply upsetting me and one thing that is really, really making me happy at the moment. The one awesome thing masses bigger than the two upsetting ones, although I'll admit the latter have been having their moments, lately. On the whole it's all balancing out, though, and I hope to tell you about at least two of those three things in a week or two (but not now, because they are not Done Yet).

Back on your heads, then.
