My first published short story just came out in Apeiron Review. It's about a mother whose son is born with a strange physical impairment, and her struggle to overcome her own fears and let him develop as an individual. The story is adapted from a novel I've been working on for longer than I'd like to admit. You can download the journal at www.apeironreview.com.
I'd love to hear what you all think of the story.
