You know how this goes by now: I make no pretense of comprehensive reading, even of the magazines for which I’ve linked a story. This is some stuff I’ve read and liked. If there’s something you’ve enjoyed lately, please feel free–encouraged, in fact–to link to it in the comments. This is just a roundup of stories (and maybe a poem) I thought well of. Yay! If you thought well of some stories (and maybe a poem or two) since last time I did this, by all means please share.<\/p>\n
