A Reading Guide to Megan Chee's short stories

Now that you know about our next book - The Archaeology of Falling Worlds by Megan Chee - I'm delighted to introduce you to Megan's other published works! She has more than a dozen short stories published in various magazines, and here I've collected the ones you can access free online.

Megan's earliest credited publication was in 2015 and she's been publishing with regularity since 2021. This sampling is a really fantastic look at the things she excels at in her writing: the vibrancy of her worlds, her humor, her ability to balance the fantastical and mundane, and just how much she's able to pack into such a small space. In Spring 2027 you'll find all these skills and more in Archaeology. But for now...

First, I’ll link her website here where she has everything linked by publication year, and below you'll find specifically the ones you can read for free on the publication sites and which ones have audio versions.
