β€œI’m not losing my mind, right? This guy was not in the picture we took.”
β€œWho the hell is he?” They’re squinting hard in the dark. He just looks like another one of them, to put it plainly. Like he could have been a fourth roommate. But there was no fourth roommate. It was always just the three of them.
β€œI have absolutely no memory of this dude. I’ve never seen him before in my life.”

Why are we so drawn to stories and art? Because they’re our insides turned out for everyone to see β€” the darkness and the confetti in equal measure. 🌀️

McClory: 'White Rain' Fiction by Helen McClory

"The sound was high and wrenching. There was a strong, wild smell now. She and I stood watching the second wave of the storm as it broke, droplets spattering, dense as white oil."

Love the relationship amid the storm!

"None of the snakes were awake, but the music made you think something violent was going to happen. I suppose the violence was in the man, not the snakes."

I love this story! All of Helen's stories are full of quirky happenings & gorgeous language.

A small press going out of business without paying its authors...inexcusible. I wish I could say it rarely happens, but I would be lying.

McClory: 'The Companion' Fiction by Helen McClory

This week's guest is Helen McClory!

First up is "The Companion" in Wigleaf!

"At this time of day, the risk of attack was minimal, and all she had was that noise, that taste, the treachery beneath, and the cold air around."

My #WritingCraftArticle for September is all about feedback and editing skills. It got quite lengthy so I had to split it into two. This is part one, focusing on my four feedback Es, writer intention, and stars, wishes & mirrors:

If you want to help me make rent this month, reposts are very appreciated! :p I have a special interest in SF/F/H as they are the genres I write in, but I've done covers for other genres and non-fiction as well. <3
