I actually have 11 fiction books in my current reading list now (not even bothering to count monographs and academic collections plus articles). More than half of those are for research articles I am writing. As for the other half: I am still slowly rereading The Lord of The Rings, and have finished rereading The … Continue reading What I’m Currently Reading 11/10/2022

I’ve also decided to include issues that are quarterly or bi-yearly rather than just monthly so some of these may be slightly out of sync. Otherwise, I’d not be fair to `zines that do not publish monthly! It … Continue reading Short Fiction I Enjoyed from March 2022
