Brief Conceits will be moving off of Blogger onto a WordPress-powered site. The transition will happen later this week. The web address will remain the same, and if you are subscribed to the RSS that should remain the same as well. Thank you!

Recurring Stories and Themes

There are many recurring stories and themes in Brief Conceits. For many of these, it makes most sense to read the stories from the bottom up which would be the earliest post (due to Blogger's inability to change the order in which posts are presented).
