The Flash Fiction Podcast Theme Song is by Kevin McCleod
The Producer, Editor, and Narrator of the podcast is CB Droege
Bio for this weeks author: Adriana Kantcheva writes speculative fiction about life’s emotional conundrums and can’t resist a pinch of idealism. She dips toes in several tributaries of the genre, from literary spec to epic fantasy to sci-fi. Her fiction has appeared in Short Édition, Escape Pod, and elsewhere. She’s currently (and always will be) writing a novel. Born in Bulgaria, she lived in six countries before settling in Germany. After earning her PhD in molecular biology, she has worked as a science editor, researcher, SCUBA diver, and flight attendant, but writing is the one constant in her life.

Manawaker Studio's Flash Fiction Podcast features a new piece of short short fiction each Thursday. The stories range widely in genre and theme, but lean a bit toward fantasy and science fiction. Hosted by CB Droege.
