As a bonus for Soothing Stories listeners, we would like to share a preview of our brand-new show, "Uncanny Robot Podcast." Yes, more Uncanny goodness! Wonderfully wild AI-created stories read by humans (that would be Thersa and Richard) with a little commentary thrown in, too. Thank you so much for subscribing and listening to Soothing Stories. We really hope you like the new podcast as well.

Did you know "The Iron Shroud" by William Mudford was the impetus for Edgar Allan Poe's "The Pit and the Pendulum"? Well, it was. I decided to read it (and next, Poe's iconic tale), so we can compare the two for similarities and differences. I wonder which one you like best?

Soothing Stories Podcast

I've heard dozens of narrations of Lewis Carroll's Alice and Wonderland, but none of the sequel, Through the Looking Glass. So I decided to read the tale one chapter at a time. In this story, Alice steps through a mirror into a Looking Glass World. Here many things are reversed, we hear The Jabberwocky for the first time, and we get to meet Humpty Dumpty.

The short story "Sand Walls, Paper Doors" is from my first collection of short stories called, "A Robe of Feathers and Other Stories". Set in Japan, it's a somewhat autobiographical tale about an exchange student trying to find her way in the world. Also, there are quite a few youkai, these curious Japanese creatures.
