A brand-new electronic magazine, Redstone Science Fiction<\/em><\/a>, plans to publish my short-short story “Memorial at Copernicus” in an upcoming issue.<\/p>\n

How new is Redstone Science Fiction<\/em>? Their first issue will be June 2010. I love their tagline: “Get us off this rock.”<\/p>\n

What is it with me and stories that take place on the Moon? I don’t know … except that I’ve always wanted to go there,* and since I can’t go for real I have to settle for going in my imagination. And it’s very nice when I can take a few people along with me.<\/p>\n

They tell me my story may appear as early as the August issue.<\/p>\n
