It came from Alexandra Peel
Alexandra Peel’s story “Love, Death, and the Electric Soul” was published in Metaphorosis on Friday, 16 December 2022.
Love makes the world go around, or so they say. Love connects. Romantic love combined with pragma binds us. Death is common to us all, and yet can isolate individuals. The existence of a soul is still debated, in some circles.
I initially responded to...

It came from J.B. Kish
J.B. Kish’s story “Through the Middle” was published in Metaphorosis on Friday, 9 December 2022.
A few years ago, I drove past a restaurant and found myself jotting down the concept for a new story: Guy pays $300 for the best hamburger someone can make. It didn’t mean much to me at the time. I actually had no idea why someone would pay so much for a hamburger of all things. But I liked...

A question for Alex T. Singer
Q: What's a typical writing day like for you?
A: These days, it starts with a (very strong) cup of tea, an omelette for my one year old, and as many words as I can get in before she decides I'm done for the morning. I usually like to take a midday walk to keep from going stir crazy, and if I'm lucky, I can get a few more words at the gym in the afternoon in...

It came from Christopher Warden
Christopher Warden’s story “The Dragon's Due” was published in Metaphorosis on Friday, 2 December 2022.
Beyond an ever-present desire to turn things upside down, this story was inspired by the “Fable of the Dragon Tyrant” metaphor tale made popular by Oxford philosopher Nick Bostrom and the you-tuber personality CGP Grey. The argument was that we should try...
