Smorgasbord Podcast – Poetry and Flash Fiction – A celebration of Autumn – by Sally Cronin

Posted on September 27, 2021 by Smorgasbord - Variety is the Spice of Life.

I recently recorded a piece of flash fiction and a poem that was aired on Saturday 25th September by Showboat TV.. I recorded on Anchor and the two pieces are also on

But they are short so if you would like to hear them…here they are.

Excellent poetry, Sally and the audio was a nice twist. So neat to hear the author’s voice. 🙂

Sally, I enjoyed both the flash fiction tasting of apples and of course the double etheree as well. For years I have seen your sparkly smile online but I have never heard your melodic voice until now. Super! 😀

I so enjoyed listening to these two celebrations of autumn! The flash fiction piece brought back good memories of homemade crabapple jelly with the paraffin “lid.” I bought some from the store as an adult, but it wasn’t anywhere near the same, and I never bought it again.
