GREAT SELECTION OF SHORT STORIES
Very unique selection of short stories with a wide range of tropes, from time travel to aliens. These stories were heartwarming and thought provoking. Every story stood alone, making me wish for more.

December 1, 2025Three great shorts in three sci-fi sub genres from speculative fiction to historical to hysterical. I think you'll enjoy it. (I wrote it, so giving myself 5 stars seems disingenuous)
