You are listening to a Clarks World magazine podcast with your host and

narrator Kate Baker. Greetings Clarksville citizens. I hope this podcast finds

you well. This is our second story for the month of March, issue 150. As per

usual, just let me take a few seconds to thank each and every one of you who comes by to listen to the podcast and who extends their support. Thank you

to listen to the podcast and who extends their support via

Patreon.com forward slash Clark'sworld

or over at Clarksworld citizens.

And for those of you who enjoy the podcast or the

stories or the non-fiction or the art each and every month and haven't yet been

able to jump to the subscriber or the support basis. Please consider doing so. So our second

story is titled, When Home, No Need to Cry. And it is by Aaron K Wagner.

Aaron is a speculative fiction writer interested in examining how the human responds to the

inhuman.

She grew up in southeast Ohio on the border of Appalachia. But now lives in

Central New York where she hikes in the cat skills and listens for ghostly games of nine pins.

She holds her PhD in medieval literature and teaches literature in writing at the Sunni system.

She splits her time between academic research, investigating how medieval English writers

navigated their own religious identities, and creative writing.

Her stories have appeared in a variety of publications from Apex to Luna Station Quarterly, and her novella, The Green and Growing, is available from Aqueduct Press.

You can find Aaron at the website Aaron K Wagner.com.

So my dear listener, I do hope you can sit back,

relax, and let me tell you a story.
