Bewildering Stories introduces and welcomes...

Changming Yuan

Changming grew up in rural China and began learning English in Shanghai at the age of 19. An emigrant to Canada, he earned a Ph.D. in English from the University of Saskatchewan. He has published at least 15 poetry collections in English and began writing short stories in 2021. He has started a cross-cultural novel, which promises to expend into a trilogy.

“Converting” is a story in memoir form. It will surely remain memorable to all readers for the understanding that a son shows for his father’s compassionate nature, one that transcends political and even religious identities,

Bewildering Stories does not officially observe religious seasons; there’d be no end to them. Suffice it, then, to allow Changming Yuan’s “Converting” and Gary Campbell’s “Vee Signs” also in this issue, to fit and transcend them all.
