Strange, but a fun depiction of the flow state. I wish there were more.

This 100% felt like the kind of story a high school English teacher would assign for homework and ask you to write an essay about.. but there’s just not enough content or symbolism or anything to really absorb.

This short story is weird, and the blurb makes it sound like it could be great and really interesting. But it’s just weird. The writing style is fine, but the content is just a big ??? to me.

The blurb really made me think this short story would be engaging and fun, but it’s weird, completely unrealistic, and makes me feel a little squeamish.

It’s definitely an interesting concept, but not anything I’d really recommend to anyone.

(If you’re looking for where to read the story yourself you can find it on Robin Sloane’s website.)
