@jason-h-abbott.bsky.socialHe hasn’t noticed he’s been dead for six months. Unlike the others, I can see him working in his still vacant office.
“Hey Boss, I brought you coffee,” I say putting a cup on a dusty desk. “Let’s take a break.”
“There’s too much work.”
“No. No, there isn’t.”

The other authors in here are just incredible too as always - I can't wait to dig in.👀

@owlnsquirrels1111.bsky.socialMany thanks to Jason H. Abbott @jason-h-abbott.bsky.social , EIC for including my microfiction “The Margin Bleed” in this fantastic issue “Rebel” of #SciFanSat @scifansat.bsky.social
As usual, a fabulous cover page art. ✨✨ read it here:
@alanvmichaels.bsky.social🙏🏻 Jason, Kim, & Bartleby, for publishing “Rebel with a Hope.”
This “abduction” story has a special place in my heart, & it was submitted to #SciFanSat at 11:59pm—nothing like the last minute to spare!
I’m delighted everyone has the chance to read it.
I’d be pleased to know what you think of it.
@jorgecandeias.mastodon.social.ap.brid.gySo yeah, I somehow managed to find a few minutes (and it was really just a few) to translate one of my short shorts to English and submit to #SciFanSat, as I thought it fit particularly well this month's theme.
And it got accepted.

@jason-h-abbott.bsky.social“Draconic Sorceress”
The September #SciFanSat cover art I made for the new issue coming out this Saturday wasn’t designed with that role in mind. She started as a fantasy portrait crafted for fun, but then I took a shine to her punk-rebel vibe.
@jason-h-abbott.bsky.social“Utopia has always been at war with Dystopia.”
“Always?”
“Always.”
“But if ideals are mutable, if indestructible, changing if not dying—”
“Utopia has ALWAYS been at war with Dystopia, Citizen. What you propose sounds like Dystopian doublethink...”

@jason-h-abbott.bsky.social“Whatever happened to the Wunderkind?”
“The super boy from the future sent back to save it? He was actually an agent of a future global totalitarian regime, placed to ensure their fascist timeline is inevitable.”
“So, there is no hope.”
“No, there’s one: He rebelled.”
