What a lovely surprise to see EscapePod. One of the early early podcasts. If you search through their backlog along with the backlog of their sister podcasts, you’ll find some narrations from a much younger, less tired, me.
I miss that age of podcasting. I’m glad EscapePod is still going.

I loved this story and writing.
This was a nice one-shot. Concise, clear, and not cluttered. It should also be posted to Reddit’s HFY subreddit.
I can't connect to that now, but that's the title of a copyrighted Lawrence Watt-Evans story, one that won a Hugo award.
