Biblioracle: Kyle Seibel’s collection of short stories is full of humor and humanity Kyle Seibel writes about the overlooked, somewhat downtrodden, but not wholly defeated members of society.

Kyle Seibel is working in the tradition of writers like George Saunders, Etgar Keret, Arthur Bradford and the late Gabe Hudson, other writers who deploy irony and a jaundiced eye in the service of dark, but not pitch black, humor, writes the Biblioracle.

First Blood, by Kyle Seibel "Did I fall in love with her? I did. As much as that was worth back then. Not much I don’t think... That summer I had so much love that it drove the price to historic lows."

this @kylerseibel.bsky.social story was one of the first few I pubbed on short story, long. it's such a banger.

phil is the case against not meeting your heroes. a fundamentally decent human being, which i’ve found out, is quite rare among successful writers

Two books away from reading 100 this year. I’ve read a lot of great interesting books that I loved. Here are some that stood out to me for whatever reasons (in no particular order and obviously leaving out a ton)!!

God: Hello, Joseph, trouble?

Joseph: Looks like we'll have to send someone down. A lot of people are asking for help for a man named George Bailey.

God: George Bailey? Oh shit! Fuck! Yes, tonight's his crucial night. You bet your fucking ass we'll have to send someone down
