Index of All Your Fiction Series on Substack!
Looking for a good reading binge? Start here.
Today I’m launching this special page that will serve as the main index hub of all the Substack Fiction Series monthly spotlights I’m doing. 🎉 (I’ll be refreshing and updating this page each month, so watch for changes!)
You can click here to go to the Substack Fiction Picks Collective section list of posts if you prefer to do the whole infinite scroll down thing, which also shows you the books I’m reading lately that I talk about in monthly updates.
I’m always surprised by how few people seem to know how many serial stories there are on this platform, so I’m excited to spread awareness about all of these great authors. This was my biggest frustration while writing my Sci-Fi Comedy Series “The Intergalactizen’s Guide to Taming Earthlings” – that so many people didn’t seem to know Substack could be a fun publishing option all on its own.
This index includes:

Fiction series picks I loved in April 2025:
1. Snowmen Are Murder by Ann Audree
I love this one because it’s just so much fun to read. Who ever thought a snowman looked dangerous? If you like humor with your mystery, then this story series is absolutely one to read by
.2. Fallen From Stars: The Fencing Master by Parrish Baker (writing as Urna Semper)
Fallen From Stars - THE FENCING MASTER (Part 1)

. What I love most about this one is the pacing. It moves fluidly from one moment to the next with just hints of backstory about landing in an unfamiliar place and learning to fight. It felt like elements of sci-fi and fantasy blend well here.3. Tales from the Triverse by Simon K. Jones
Anyone who’s been on Substack for a while has likely seen
😁 This series was one of the very first that I stumbled across, and it’s also one of the best organized in terms of his table of contents setup and graphics. The thing that grabs me about this story series is how interwoven the three worlds are with all these little details that connect in surprising ways. It’s an excellent read for people who like their fantasy detailed with lots of complex world building.Previous Substack series I’ve read so far that I ❤️
