Welcome to Cold Reads, Episode 3. Cold Reads is a weekly podcast read by Nathaniel Tower. Each week, Nathaniel invites an author to send his or her wildest, funniest, most twisted story. Without reading the story ahead of time, Nathaniel records an audio version, trying to maintain his composure as the author takes the audience on a wild ride.
Week 3 brings you "My Friend Avery" by CS DeWildt. This story is previously unpublished.
CS DeWildt is a liar. He wants to hurt you. His stories have been published all over. A collection of his short fiction is expected out this March through Martian Lit.
