		<description><![CDATA[All these little bugs having one last fling before winter are reminding me of a trio of stories I heard on Drabblecast a while ago, or as they like to call it, a Trifecta.

The first is &#8220;Ephemeroptera’s Lament&#8221;,  by Craig Watson, a goofy and charming tale of the joys and terrors of being a [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=writingeveryday.wordpress.com&blog=2980432&post=3532&subd=writingeveryday&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So I&#8217;m going through my archives of stories I like, which gave me an excuse to listen again the Drabblecast of &#8220;Gifting Bliss: Fifteen Years Later, Jason Avery’s Magic is Still Saving the World&#8221; by Josh Rountree. It&#8217;s a charming presentation, a kind of musical bio show, complete with promo break. Considering that I&#8217;m not [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=writingeveryday.wordpress.com&blog=2980432&post=3536&subd=writingeveryday&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Here&#8217;s another bit of silliness. &#8220;The Dyslexicon,&#8221; by Carl Frederick is almost too silly for words. That&#8217;s must be why it turns words inside out, mixes them, and shuffles them about.  Filled with all sorts of wordplay, from spoonerism to bad puns, the story presents a conversation between a dyslectic robot interview with the Head [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=writingeveryday.wordpress.com&blog=2980432&post=3743&subd=writingeveryday&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Told as the rejection letter from a science journal, Standards, by Richard K. Lyon, is full of deft hints of adventure and dry put-downs of the sort of mad genius who submits patents for perpetual motion machines and trisects angles in his sleep. And I think that sentence is almost as long as the story.

It begins in Britain long after the Romans have left little behind but ruins.

		<description><![CDATA[Telling us a variant on Pratchett&#8217;s multiple tooth fairies, &#8220;The Tooth Fairy,&#8221; by Jeffrey Valka sounds exactly like the absurd thing a father tells his kids just to mess with them.
