I’ve been asked a couple of times recently if any of my stories were freely available online. For a while they weren’t but as of today, my first published story, “When I Kissed the Learned Astronomer” is now freely available here on my website.
Several people suggested that I make the story available on the Kindle and I’m still considering doing that, but I still wanted at least a sample of my work available freely for anyone who wanted to read it. I like this story, which was first published back in 2007 in Orson Scott Card’s InterGalactic Medicine Show.
If you like it, I’d urge you to go to the InterGalactic Medicine Show website and check out their most recent issue. And perhaps consider subscribing.
Thanks for the free story! I’ve been reading your blog for a couple of months now – I’m excited to read some of your fiction!
You’re welcome! Thanks for reading! And let me just remind you that in the next couple of weeks, my story, “Take One for the Road” should be appearing in the June issue of Analog. (I know, shameless plug, but I can’t help it. I’m too excited.) 🙂
If you really loved me you’d make it available as an epub file and help me figure out how to get it onto my Stanza on my iPhone. 🙂
Michael, I’m going to make it available in other eFormats, but one step at a time. I just wanted to get it out there.
I’m just teasing you (but you knew that). If I really needed it on my iPhone, I could cut and paste and make the epub document all on my own.
Of course, Michael. But I’m still planning on making it available in other formats, if for no other reason than to learn how to do it.
