Ah, "Bits and Pieces on This Floor" by Eric Del Carlo—a title so captivating, it practically begs you to question what exactly has fallen on that floor. Perhaps it’s the remnants of a brilliant narrative, or maybe just the scattered ideas of a writer who couldn't find a trash can. In the latest episode of Clarkesworld Magazine, you can listen as Kate Baker artfully reads this masterpiece, elevating the mundane to the extraordinary, or at least to a level above picking up after your pet. Catch the text version if you fancy reading while pretending to look busy! And remember, supporting on Patreon is just another way to ensure more bits and pieces hit your floor, metaphorically speaking of course. #EricDelCarlo
