1. Every once in a while I’ll read about or be told about or see nominated for an award a novel that, when I read it for myself, I don’t understand what the fuss is about; it’s something I don’t find particularly interesting or worthy of the praise. And when that happens, do you know what I do?

This thought has been rattling around my head after submitting my stories to several markets this past week: what about a micro competition at @canconsffh.bsky.social with maybe the shortlist showcased during the event? Or there’s a workshop and at the end folks submit? 🤓
