You've come here for the stories, not to read about me. These are my Science Fiction stories.
All the stories here are works of fiction, meant for adults. Read something else if you are not an adult, or are offended by stories which may have sexual content. Then again, if all you're looking for is in-out, in-out, in-out, you should probably read something else. I welcome constructive comments. Enjoy.
What are my Sci-Fi favorites? The authors you'd expect, Heinlein, Arthur Clarke, Azimov, Bradbury, Hogan, Spider Robinson, Vernor Vinge, Neal Stephenson, Richard Paul Russo, Bruce Sterling, Orson Scott Card, Rudy Rucker, William Gibson, Doc Smith, so many others. But how about Norman Spinrad? Read The Void Captain's Tale? Or, Cordwainer Smith? Read his short story The Lady who Sailed the Soul.
Some of the stories that have changed me: Clarke's The Star, Walter Miller's A Canticle for Liebowitz, John Brunner's Stand on Zanzibar, Roger Zelazny's Lord of Light, Cordwainer Smith's The Lady who Sailed the Soul, A lot of Azimov, Clarke, Heinlein; most of Cordwainer Smith. New stuff, too -- look at my Reading List
The Metamorphosis of Prime Intellect by Roger Williams is a great, intense SciFi story. Roger has asked me to host a new, intense story for him -- The Mitigator Strike
