This story features powerful, telepathic twin sisters as the protagonists.

Chatting With Sherri welcomes award-winning writer; Brian Trent! Brian was born in a post-industrial factory town in Connecticut. He was rapidly introduced to speculative fiction through a lavishly illustrated edition of One Thousand and One Nights. As a child, he became a haunter of libraries and old ruins and developed a keen interest in both ends of history: the ancient past and far-distant future. Reading everything from Asimov to Xenophon, he began crafting his very first stories on a metallic-blue Brother 11 typewriter. After earning college degrees in English and philosophy, Trent worked as a professional journalist when not piloting expeditionary shuttles through the soupy atmospheres of alien worlds (otherwise known as going for long drives in the rain). His nonfiction writings have graced the cover of The Humanist magazine. His Writers of the Future win is his second professional sale, the first being to COSMOS, and he has since sold fiction to Apex Magazine. He recently completed the second novel in a “future history” series and, when not writing, Trent works in film. 

We're really excited about Jennifer Donohue's "A Country of Eternal Light" so we may have gone a little overboard. One ongoing segment we have over at patreon.com/thefrankencast is Frankencast After Dark, where Anthony is joined by The Bride to dig deeper into topics discussed briefly in main feed episodes. The Bride read Jennifer's story and had some feelings that she wanted to share. This is an intensely emotional conversation, but we wanted to make it available to all of our listeners. We're talking about grief and love in the time of protest. A lot still feels uncertain in the world, but we hope that you all are able to find peace whenever possible, and can find ways to grieve when you need to. To be continued... We're presenting this full episode here on the main feed thanks to the support of our patrons, and because we're so excited to share Jennifer's work with you all. Read "A Country of Eternal Light" at Apex Magazine. And if you like what you heard, you can find more about Jennifer at http://authorizedmusings.blogspot.com/. And of course, you can support us at patreon.com/thefrankencast.

This week at patreon.com/thefrankencast we're discussing this beautiful and visceral short from Jennifer Donohue. She recently shared the story with us and we were eager to talk about this painfully honest meditation on grief in the modern world. It's a story about the physical objects that carry on after we're gone that continue to tell our histories. And it's a story of the tumultuous year of 2020, when we were having to fight against systemic inequality and racial injustice in the midst of global health and economic crises. It's handled in a way that feels deeply personal and specific, and yet universal at the same time. A lot still feels uncertain in the world, but we hope that you all are able to find peace whenever possible, and can find ways to grieve when you need to. To be continued... We're presenting this full episode here on the main feed thanks to the support of our patrons, and because we're so excited to share Jennifer's work with you all.

Next Week's Prompt: Think about the geographical place that says home to you, its flora and fauna, the distinctive shape of the land and the buildings there rooted, the people who feel like family and community, whose tongues shapes sounds like your own. Then, even in so simple a form as a list, draw the most distinctive of those elements together and show—in hints or explicitly—how you are partly contingent on those specificities, how you emerge from that milieu.
