Welcome back to the Reckoning Press podcast! It's me, your erstwhile host and publisher, Michael J. DeLuca. We've had some exciting news here, which, in that frustrating way that seems unique to publishing, I don't feel at liberty to share with you yet. But please check back in a month?

In the meantime, here we have for you Bernie Jean Schiebeling's short story, "The Donor", from Reckoning 8, read for you by the author themself. This is a quietly intense story about the commodification of identity and the gulf of misunderstanding that lies between colonizer and colonized. It's an important story, I feel like, and it has stuck with me. Here's hoping it works the same for you.

This episode was recorded and produced by our new audio editor, Aaron Kling.
