Bless Your Mechanical Heart

It is with great joy and tremulous humility that I come to you, electronically.

My short story, "The Body as a Ship", was purchased by Evil Girlfriend Media last fall.  It appears now in the anthology, Bless Your Mechanical Heart. (You can buy it on Amazon here or for other platforms here) It was edited by the talented Jennifer Brozek.

As Katie Cord, the publisher, has kindly said, this is the story that sort of inspired the anthology.  I met Katie when we were both workshopping stories at the Cascade Writer's Workshop about two years ago.  Katie, by the way, is all kinds of awesome.  Talented, ambitious, hard working and beautiful. And, no, I'm not saying that because she liked my story.  She really is.

"The Body as a Ship" was my first attempt to do real science fiction, something that was about man and technology and the future.  It is about body replacement but in an optimistic future or I see it that way. Though you can't gain things without losing other things, I feel, so there is a certain wistfulness, a longing in the main character. Or that was what I was going for.

The book, and surprisingly my story, are both getting good reviews.  If you read it and like it, let me know.

Thank you.
