"You can make anything by writing." - C. S. Lewis

Congrats! You have stumbled upon the very first episode of our Curation Library series. Here, we speak to a reader, writer, or all-around literature enthusiast about their own taste and then curate an episode of short stories chosen just for them...and for you, of course!

Our special guest for this episode is the lovely @literaturewithlydia, who you can find on Instagram or in her own podcast under the same name. The stories we have chosen highlight a few of her favourite qualities, including mixed media, dystopian settings, and witty main characters.
