		<description><![CDATA[Where &#8220;Evil Robot Monkey&#8221; touched my heart, &#8220;Exhalation&#8221; by Ted Chiang engaged my brain. No, wait. It stole my brain and turned it inside out in one long thought experiment.  The reading on Escape Pod perfectly matches the dry tone of the narration. Opening with the jarring image of exchanging lungs for freshly charged ones [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=writingeveryday.wordpress.com&blog=2980432&post=3682&subd=writingeveryday&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

Sly is an intelligent chimp who edges a bit further into humanity because he so desperately needs to lose his self in making things.

		<description><![CDATA[If you&#8217;re looking for a moving story about sacrifice that&#8217;s not related to the holidays, you might appreciate &#8220;Reparations&#8221; by Merrie Haskell, in an excellent reading on Escape Pod. Like &#8220;Wikihistory&#8221; it involves time travel to Worrld War II, but it&#8217;s the polar opposite in tone.
The narrator is part of a small group of volunteers [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=writingeveryday.wordpress.com&blog=2980432&post=2150&subd=writingeveryday&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[On the surface, &#8220;Private Detective Molly,&#8221; by A.B. Goelman seems to your basic SF detective story, with a contrived bad guy who wants to cheat sweet little Dorothy. And the only wise-cracking detective standing in the way is a six-inch doll, who says:
I&#8217;m a sucker for a crying girl. You can call it programming if [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=writingeveryday.wordpress.com&blog=2980432&post=1946&subd=writingeveryday&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

The narrator offers a moving story about losing a difficult mother to lung cancer. [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=writingeveryday.wordpress.com&blog=2980432&post=661&subd=writingeveryday&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

An alien society where females gain power by bearing children and keeping house, and teachers are high status? That&#8217;s different. An alien society where males aim to ingratiate themselves with breeding females? That&#8217;s familiar.
