Introduction

I love short stories, especially short stories about women, and mostly about the ways in which their bodies misbehave, or how they misbehave inside them. I love rewritten fairy tales, where the women are able to get their revenge, or speak in their own voices for once. I love female characters who don’t do as they’re told; who are a bit… strange. I love stories about women doing things they aren’t expected to do, or doing things that they – quote unquote – shouldn’t. And don’t worry, I know you weren’t expecting a male author up first, but he’s the only one, I promise.
