Dog Versus Sandwich will take a short break this week.
Now I know what you’re thinking: “You forgot there were five Mondays in June, didn’t you, Ben?”
Ahh haha! Ludicrous!
Hang your cynical head in shame!
No, this week we take a break to reflect. It’s been a remarkable six month journey thus far. I’m sure we all have our memories. The story with the thing in it. The one about that guy. The Epic sonnets. The one starring Charles Bud Tingwell.
Good times.
At this juncture I’d invite you, gentle readership, to contribute your thoughts. Which have been your favourite stories of the first six months? Remember your feedback will shape the future of the zine, rendering me *not responsible* for any future dislikes you have, so choose well!! I may even let the more popular authors out of my coal shed…
The floor is yours*!
(*the floor is not literally yours. It belongs to my landlord. But go ahead and speak if you like)
This is only my first time visiting so I haven’t had a chance to read up and introduce myself to the missed six months. Though I’m compelled to leave a comment–such a clean, but empty box of the Internet can’t be allowed to go to waste.
I don’t have a favorite out of the last six months, but after reading the latest few weeks I look forward to finding a favorite.
I’ve been reluctant to post anything here as I’ve really enjoyed so many of the stories you’ve posted and like the range you include, from light and humorous to (genuinely) surreal, to more literary to quite disturbing. However, if I’m really pushed, I’ll say that two stories that have stayed with me are Zif the Magic Beaver, which was so quirky, and the story of Fennywompus, which was wonderully daft. Perhaps I’ve been infected by your enthusiasm for talking animals, as both of those include such a character.
