Multiple literary magazines turned down this story. It took months of submitting and waiting—submit, wait, no.
Submit, wait, no.
Submit, wait, no.
Submit, wait, no—you get the picture.
One morning, I looked in the mirror and said, “Seany, this is your world, they’re just living in it.” I never submitted to a literary magazine again. Not because I don’t think they have quality writing but because I just don’t have the patience to wait for an answer. ABP - Always be publishing.
I hope that you enjoy this audio version of Sentences. I LOVE IT. Connor Brannigan nailed it. He goes a little darker at the end than how I read it, but that’s what I love about the final paragraphs of this story; the reader, not the writing, sings that final note.
