Are you interested in short stories? Do you want to read more of them, or more of a certain kind, or just to get to know the form a little better? Join the Short-Story Reading Thread for the coming year—astonishingly, the fourth annual short-story reading thread.
In this thread we read and talk about short stories in all genres. Come tell us about the short stories you are reading. We will also share links to interesting stories to read on line, so if you’re not sure where to start, you can count on lots of suggestions.
In past threads, some intrepid readers shared a sentence or two (um, or more ) about each story they read. That is not required, though it is very much appreciated! The primary goal is to read, so don’t fret if you don’t have time or inclination to write something about every story. If you’re reading short stories, you belong here!
Also entirely optional: If you like, you can set challenges for yourself to read a certain number of stories, or more of a certain type of story, or a certain number of collections, or any criteria you like.
Happy reading!
