A day late again! I've had a very busy month doing house renovations and other things, and my writing time has been spoiled by a side effect of all that hard labor: sleepiness.

Yes, instead of burning the midnight oil writing, I've been napping in my recliner. Or, as my dad would say, checking my eyelids for light leaks. While I enjoy the renovating work -- knocking down walls, reframing, hanging sheetrock, and all that good stuff -- my body keeps saying "Whoa! What the heck is THIS?" and making me fall asleep in the evenings.

All that said, I could just plan my month better and make sure to write the short story earlier so I have plenty of time. So from now on I'll try to do better.

Anyway, here's this month's short story, which I've dated October 15th because it was technically ready by then...

Trading Magic
So where exactly do the shapeshifters' smart clothes come from? This is a little peek into life below the water, the home of the sinister miengu, where something exciting is about to happen: the execution of a prisoner.

Read Trading Magic and other short stories, and look for another next month!
