Hey all. Sorry my Thursday uploads have been less frequent; I’m doing lots of prereading these days. Have a guest upload by longtime Snippet Series co-author, Str8aura!

Work on the Snippet finale continues, and I’ve finally got a commissioned cover art in the works. During this interim, I highly recommend sampling the embedded story by Str8aura, part time co-author of the Snippet Series. Heck, check out Str8aura’s entire profile if you’re inclined. Tons of great stuff there with emotional beats far stronger than most of my works.

Doing a guest slot this week. Str8aura (a friend of mine whom I often mention in my liner notes) writes Snippets same as me, and their stuff needs more eyes on their work. If you’re open to clever, nonlinear storytelling that really rewards repeated read throughs, give this read a go.

My regular Snippets will resume next week.

As alluded to in the italicized notes of every Snippet Series entry, this anthology is a joint project shared by myself and Str8aura. And though the latter has put out nearly triple the number of Snippets I have (including the Botany And Adaptation guest upload from a few weeks back,) his stuff deserves more traffic than its getting. So here’s Str8aura’s current catalogue: a whopping twenty-five Snippets for your reading pleasure.

Yesterday, I did a read through of a story that is no longer up on this site, sadly. It's called The Things the CMC are NOT Allowed To Do in School and it's by Str8aura. I read through all potential stories I consider recording for my channel before actually doing it, and I decided to read it like Sean Connery, just because, and I absolutely died laughing while reading one of the lines! I literally could not stop laughing!
