Musing

Going through a little nostalgia craze. This weekend, pulled out and began re-reading my collection of an older 'zine, The Edge, Tales of Suspense. I began with issue #9, which just happened to include one of my short shorts, "Ablutions," my first of several stories published in that 'zine, for which I felt very grateful. Understand this came out back in 2001, when I was in a very different place in my life, in terms of geography, career and future prospects. Nothing since has quite turned out as I'd planned, but in most cases things turned out for the better. Still, re-reading these old mags is leaving me feeling a little wistful for younger days and wondering what I would have done different if I had the opportunity.
