Here’s the link: https://cliffaliperti.substack.com/p/playing-games … and here’s me blabbing about it: I’d been wanting to play around with audio or video with my stories for awhile now. When I noticed that some of the journals that had previously published my work had since disappeared, I decided to take it as an opportunity to recycle some […]

I'll link to any new publications here and, one of these days, I may actually do a little blogging too.
“Eddie the Simp Holds Court” at Literary Garage
My story “Eddie the Simp Holds Court” has been published over at Literary Garage. This story has had a long journey: it was the first short piece I wrote after returning my focus to fiction, but it has changed a lot from the masterpiece I thought I had created when I began submitting it to […]

“Over the Hill, Under the Hill” at The Razor
I’d been submitting stories to The Razor for a few years now, assuming long odds of ever being published there. After all, it’s free to submit, plus they pay, and they only publish one piece of fiction (and one non-fiction) per month. So they take twelve stories per year. And my story, “Over the Hill, […]
