<p>She pulled one over Tau&#39;s

She pulled one over Tau's massive shoulders and buckled the strap around his waist.
They braced for the impact. When they struck the water, the gravity generator could not fully compensate, and they were thrown forward against the bulkhead, but escaped with only minor bruises. (2/4)

Klaxons sounded in the cockpit as the SkyJumper, streaming smoke, rapidly lost altitude.
"We're going to have to in the ocean!" said Zaza.
Tau barked, nudging the life preservers.
Zaza and Bebe put theirs on.
"Bebe will help you!" Bebe said. (1/4)

What species / race is your MC?

The Better Angels are non-human biological androids that look like pre-teen girls. They were developed by the Magicorps corporation via a clean-room re-implementation of the human genome, but contain no human DNA. You can find the Better Angels on the Truck Stop at the Center of the Galaxy: https://truckstop.waterdragonpublishing.com/product/better-angels-tour-de-force/

<p>&quot;Place this under your pillow

"Place this under your pillow when you sleep," Heather said, in assured tones. "Only sweet dreams will come."
Gratefully, the woman pressed a coin into Heather's hands then, comforted, she headed off into the plaza. Heather's eyes stole to the coin and widened. It was a silver coin. She was astonished. She might work for a whole day at a village and not make more than a handful of copper.
Heather settled back to wait for the next person seeking the services of a hedge witch.

Have you ever added to a work after it was finished?

It's called a sequel.

How do you support your fellow writers?

I am involved in several writing organizations. I serve as Secretary of the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers Association (SFWA). I am on the program committee of the Straw Dog Writers Guild, organizing craft presentations and hosting Straw Dog Writes, a weekly writing group. Finally, with the support of an amazing group of curators, I also run @wss366, a writing prompt on Mastodon.

Sat, 09/27/2025 - 07:05

Businesses have started to realize that AI isn't working. But I always remember Christopher Dede's observation about the life cycle of technology: "It didn't work for Business, so it must be good for Education!"

"I would like to have my daughter tested for geomancy."
"How old is she?"
Veronica held up four fingers.
"Very good! Please fill out this form. There's a fee of 10 to administer the test. Is that alright?"
Veronica's father filled out the form, signed it, and counted out the ten copper coins onto the counter.
"Just wait over there until the examiner is ready," the woman said. (from The Ground Never Lies)

It's convenient that "substack" blogs have that interstitial window that pops up to tell you to close the tab and never visit that domain name ever again.

"That was unexpected," Argo said.
"Right?" said the Borthon. "I didn't think *four* was the number!"
"And why Delacroix?"
They both sighed.
"At least it's over," Argo said. "Let's go !"
They intertwined tentacles with pincers and lifted off the surface of the methane sea into the sky.

<p>&quot;Quiet down, children!&quot;

Thu, 09/25/2025 - 07:28

"Quiet down, children!" the principal said. "We have a special guest coming to the assembly today."
Two boys in the front row rolled their eyes.
"I'll bet it's that fire safety bear again," one whispered to the other.
Once it was quiet, a teacher opened the door. An enormous pink slithered through.
Screams erupted from the children. "It's Sssindy! It's Sssindy!"
She reared up in front.
"Let'sss talk physssical fitnesss!" she said. "Isss everyone ready for sssome calisssthenicsss?"
