Work/Not at Home

I found this site after typing in "short stories" and I like it. The short stories are categorized and the website layout is easy to read. Pictures are shown next to brief descriptions of the stories as well as the page length and a rating system. Actually, two rating systems. One is for readers to give so many stars and the other is for Adult Content. Huh. I guess that's appropriate?
There's also word games!

Bibliomania. The name alone drew me to it. This site is less flashy than the above one (lack of pictures) but the list of short stories is loooonngg. Yeah, like that long. It has a lot of old writers (Mark Twain, Anton Chekhov, O. Henry) while the link above has the newest short stories. The Bibliomania also has books, poetry and drama, and they're all Classics. Who can do without the Classics, right?

Can I pause for a moment and just state the obvious? TONS of stories exist out there in this world. It's mind-boggling to fathom how my work can possibly stand out.

Now that I've gotten that depressing thought out of the way, let's move on! :)

So in my last blog, I rambled just a little bit, but I did mention http://www.salon.com/ and http://www.neilgaiman.com/. Salon.com gives the latest news as well as having an archive of its past published works. I guess I like it because my undergrad thesis professor Susan Straight has so much published on there.
And Neil Gaiman? Hell, he's Neil Gaiman! I'm mentioning him just because I can.

I gotta read Coraline before the movie comes out ...
