Substacks recommended by Winston Malone | Storyletter XPress Publishing

Recommended by Winston Malone

The variety magazine to elevate your leisure hours. Fiction, verse, curation, opinion. Never the same, always quality.

Follow the life and times of an emerging speculative fiction writer—a self-proclaimed swamp witch fertilized by Web 1.0 and addled with synth-stained story ideas. Come for the writer talk, stay for the occasional retro web nostalgia. Also clowns.
