Drabblecast Stories July 25th, 2009
Norm Sherman’s Drabblecast, a weird short-fiction podcast, has had several stories which feature anthropomorphic characters, animals and others.
The second story in Double Header III is a nice bit of drama which deals with a coyote lost in a sandwhich shop, likely inspired by real-life events from the news.
Alchemical Automaton Blues deals with the mistreatment of golems.
Out of His League is a fun take on a story you might recognize from the news last year.
The Last Dog is a sad post-apocalyptic tale.
On Dasher is a moving Christmas story with a wonderful mythos behind it.
And The Box Born Wraith is a fun horror tale for Halloween, with sympathetic monsters.
