Greetings Clerkerel Citizens. I hope this podcast finds you better than I have been the last week or so.

I am getting over a massive head cold.

You'll probably still hear it a little bit in my nasally raspy voice.

But in an effort to get you the podcast, as soon as humanly possible, I am down in my Tartis recording hoping that this sounds

somewhat professional. There really isn't much news to report on this now 23rd of March. So I am going to just jump into the third

story of the month entitled 86, 87, 88, 89 by by Genoviv Valentine.

This is for Issue number 78, March 2013.

Genoviv is no stranger here at Clark's World.

She is the author of Meccanique, a tale of the circus resulti.

Her short fiction has appeared or is forthcoming in Clark's World.

Strange Horizons Journal of Mythic Arts, Fantasy Magazine, Light Speed and Apex,

and in the anthologies, The Living Dead 2, The Way of the Wizard, Running with the Pack, Teeth,

and more. She is a co-author of the Wizard, Running with the Pack, Teeth, and Moore.

She is a co-author of the forthcoming pop culture book, Geek Wisdom, and her film and TV

writing has appeared in Fantasy magazine and Strange Horizons.

Her appetite for bad movies is insatiable, a tragedy she tracks on her blog.

Genitive can be found at g. L. Valentine. Live Journal.com.

And if the name sounds familiar to you,

her most recent story was

a bead of Jasper four small stones in the October 2012 issue, followed by Samarimus in June 2011, seeing November 2010,

in advection, August 2009.

So, without further ado, let me tell you a story.
