by Carmen Maria Machado is a collection of short stories that really got me back into a reading kick. My fav is the one set during a pandemic and a woman documenting a series of hookups and how each one differs from the other as a virus slowly consumes society. Would recommend

Stranger things happen - Kelly link
white cat, black dog - Kelly Link
her Body and Other Parties - Carmen Maria Machado
The Bloody Chamber and Other Stories - Angela Carter
the Dangers of Smoking in Bed - Mariana Enríquez

The Frangipani Hotel - Violet Kupersmith

The Doll-Maker and Other Tales of Horror, Black Dahlia and White Rose: Stories, The Corn Maiden and Other Nightmares. But my favorite which I’ve rec-ed before is Haunted: Tales of the Grotesque the titular story Haunted is so sick and twisted and I cry tears of fear every time I go back to read it (which I have multiple times). She has the most viscerally disturbing and discomfiting style and a unique ability to crawl under your skin, more so than any other horror author I’ve read and horror is not even typically her primary genre!!

disregard digital validation and don't let numbers be a gauge of how well you're doing. starting out with a small and loyal reader base is way more important than having a million subscribers
