Mariana Enriquez, "My Sad Dead".
  • Yes! Just last week I was talking to a friend about the one thing I really look forward to from ai is to translate literature, especially in the commonly spoken languages. Arabic, Spanish, Urdu, Hindi etc that we don't get translated often. OK a lot of Spanish is translated but non western languages aren't very commonly translated.

  • Mariana Enriquez, "My Sad Dead".
  • Good stuff!

  • Joy Williams, "The Mission".
  • Check out the beach by Joy Williams too! Think I posted that here.

  • All 4 words sounds like words for a fart that kids might use.

    Okay meemage might be a bit more disgusting

  • Lauren Groff, "The Wind".
  • Oh they do have eras where he everything seems to be written to fit one of their themes at the time.

    Even now unless it's one of the major writers there isn't much variety.

  • Love more horror. Somehow I don't come across a lot of horror despite loving it

  • Lauren Groff, "The Wind".
