Worthwhile Stuff For Your Ears and Eyes

Here is some worthwhile stuff to check out, while it’s at the front of my mind:

Ears

First, a couple of excellent stories in podcast form, by my pals from Clarion West:

• Pesudopod‘s rendition of the very dark story “The Greatest Adventure of All” by Ian McHugh
• Beneath Ceaseless Skies‘ rendition of Tina Connolly’s fantasy “The God-Death of Halla” (and other excellent stories are available on the same page)

Eyes

A short article giving even more context to the context I provided for my story “Cai and Her Ten Thousand Husbands” has been posted over at his excellent blog Gusts of Popular Feeling. Matt’s quotes are pretty illustrative of the awful conditions Korean girls suffered not only at the hands of the Japanese, but also in some cases at the hands of their own families.
