The Othering in A Midnight Kind of Place

Check out my new short story The Othering at A Midnight Kind of Place.

You can read it in old-fashioned text, or you can listen to it on YouTube or wherever you get your podcasts.

They also interviewed me!

I encourage you to subscribe to them for other cool and weird stories.

As always, Let me know what you think! This one was fun to write and will hopefully be fun to read as well.
