Isaac Asimov has a collection of short stories that I’ve enjoyed and recommend.

Search for:
Isaac Asimov: The Complete Stories, Vol. 1

Ted Chiang is an author I'd recommend

Libraries and book stores usually have anthology sections. Once you find an author you like, you can usually find more of their shorts. As a kid I always bought a ton at used book stores. With more modern stuff (00s and forward) you can usually find a lot of it online once you know the authors you like. The collection you read has a nice range of styles so you’ve got lots to experiment with it!

  • Analog: Science Fiction and Fact
    A paid print and digital magazine I used to subscribe to. I'm only not currently subscribed because I had fallen literal years behind and couldn't keep up. Includes not only fiction but science and futurism essays.

  • Clarkesworld
    A paid digital and print magazine, and free podcast. I would listen to this podcast more but they offer no description and I can't commit to an hour or story time just based on a title.

  • Asimov’s Science Fiction
    A paid digital and print magazine. Tends to have bigger names than Analog and Clarkesworld.

My favorite is always Analog in print form.

I see a lot of classic Clarke and Asimov posted here already, so here's a couple from my favorite sci-fi writer of that era - Ray Bradbury:
