Short Stories

One of the new parts to this month's issue of d12 Monthly was a short story. It was part one of a two part story (the second part comes out in Feb's issue).
It was submitted by Scout Prior (who also has a Patreon if you like stories with meaning).
My question to you is: do you like short stories in the zine? I know they were popular back in the day with Dragon Magazine readers, but just wondering if they hold the same popularity for d12 Monthly.
Thanks!

I hear ya, Van. Yeah, I think I would add it to the page length, rather than replace it, in the future.

I really enjoy 'zines more for the tools and theory content, than fiction to read. I'm not against a short story here and there, but i would hate for it to take up precious room for a new Class or house rules discussion that might better aid my games.

Cheers. Sounds good!

Stories are good, but need to be punchy, fast and short. Like the pulps, but compressed even more. The formula is it's bad, it gets worse, theres a twist, and the hero survives, trailing irony. Subvert tropes. Lots of action.
