And I can’t believe I haven’t posted about this already!

On Marble Threshing Floors”: the last battle of an Amazon past her prime, who burns her apron and dons her breastplate to defend home and family from new–and old–enemies. Inspired from a Byzantine folk song, this story is very dear to my heart.

And it’s now published on Cabinet Des Fées here. So, go read! (It’s free).

And while you’re there, amidst all the great stories and poems, there’s Athena Andreadis’ story “Though the Moon Be Still as Bright,” a little gem of a story.

(There’s a joke somewhere in here about Greeks bearing stories, but the cold has killed my wit today).
