You Look Lovely, Marsha
Samuel adjusted his holo-sculpting device, giving him the appearance of a perfectly toned body; despite being flabby and nearing 60, he wanted to look 30.
Marsha did the same before going on their first date.
“You look lovely, Marsha.“
“Well, not really.” Marsha blushed.
“Of course, none of us do, right?”
Marsha smiled. “Will you please order for me?”
“Oh, sure? I guess?” Samuel selected appetizers from the tablet’s menu.
Moments later, their meals arrived by robo-waiter.
“Why aren’t you eating Marsha? Don’t you like the food?”
“I can’t …” she cried while her holographic arms passed through the plate.

After the Long Burn
After the longest exodus in human history, a terrible accident threatens to turn the salvation of humanity into its most desperate struggle for survival. From the ashes of calamity rises a new human story. A frustrated scientist dedicates her life to recreating the Earth in alien soil, while another is gunned down for his sin and sets off a chain of events culminating in a desperate escape across the void for an opportunity at redemption. Around a distant moon a deep space miner stumbles onto a secret, the key to which lies buried inside his own tortured mind. After the Long Burn is an anthology of short science fiction stories set in the distant Ionad System. Author's Note: I thought I might try something a little different with this story. Rather than one story, it is six stories of varying length, each taking a slightly different perspective to tell a larger story. Some are more actioney, others more cerebral but I hope there will be something for everyone. Stories over 7000 words, with the exception of the titular After the Long Burn, will be published in two parts. I anticipate an upload schedule of one part every other day.

But let's just think about it a little. Isn't regretting doing something easier than regretting not doing it and wondering for the rest of your life about what would have happened if i had done it?
