An amazing thing has happened. The First Line has produced an audio version of my short story, “Efficiency Leads to Fulfillment.” It first appeared in their print magazine in 2020, then was later reprinted in Workers Write.
For once, words fail me. I can’t describe the feeling of hearing other people bring my work to life. I’m enormously pleased with how it turned out.
Also, if you’re considering subscribing and/or submitting work to any literary magazines, The First Line is a good choice. They do blind reads, so all stories are chosen on merit rather than personal connections. They charge no submission fee, and they pay at least a little. Much higher standards than some bigger name publications. I always look forward to a new issue.
Anyway, give my story a listen. It’s about ten minutes long.

Very exciting! I will listen later. Too late now. 🙂 Also, thank you for the submission suggestion. I’m gong to pitch a story or two. Will look over their content and guidelines.
