Thank you once again for this great newsletter. Really enjoying the stories. One that stood out was “The Sunset Glowed a Blinding Red” (https://open.substack.com/pub/inkblotwriting/p/the-sunset-glowed-a-blinding-red?r=2qufyf&utm_medium=ios). It’s a great example of suggesting a whole background, history, and world, without spelling anything out and just obliquely alluding to it. The piece is very very short but you feel like there’s a whole world behind that one short scene.

Ah, I see I should have DM'd you a copy of the story link. Nuts.

I consider it my (unpaid) job to find the unfindable. Discover the hidden. Uncover that which is worth sharing and reading to all those in search of fiction! I came across yours and I’m glad that I did.

Welcome!

Omg! What an honor! Thank you so much for the mention :) Being considered alongside stories I love, like The Conjurer and Grandpappy & Sons Co, is just incredible. Thank you for shedding light on authors, whether big or small!
