Killin Jack reviewed on The Fix!
I was just googling myself, as one does (lots of hits for Michael JOHN Grist, zero for plain old Michael Grist)- and found a review of my story Killin Jack- recently published in 'AtomJack'.
The review is on a short fiction review site new to me, called 'The Fix'. The review just went up yesterday- so this is hot off the presses, people!
The Fix seems pretty cool- with discussion boards and whatnot. I read some of the reviews- which are of stories I have read in various other popular zines. I like it. It's a step in bringing all these writers, editors, and readers of middle-end short-story fiction together in a community. I'll probably track it along with the zines they review, which I read and submit to already.
Anyway- on to Jack. I like the review. The fact the reviewer didn't fully understand Jack's story is an issue, sure, but he used glowing (to me, at least) words like bizarre, colorful, and creative to describe it- and that more than makes up for it.
