Zonkeys and zebroids

March’s equestrian news reports that the breeding of zebras with horses or donkeys results in zonkeys and zebroids.

What does Jack think about that?

He says, ‘Not in my field!’

Megan Crewe thinks we might be confusing the issues here. Are we into 93-E Contradiction territory?

We’d been thinking Horse of a Different Colour but good question.

Jack? Are you taking this seriously?

National Fruitcake Day

Dang it! Just missed National Fruitcake Day on December 27th, which would have been the perfect hook on which to hang a short article about a Sci-Fi short, The 93-E Contradiction. http://getbook.at/93E

The 93-E Contradiction

Today my first Sci-Fi book is published by Fantastic Books Publishing. I say "book" but it barely deserves the name, it's very short; a Sci-Fi short. The 93-E Contradiction.

I'm seeing it as an optimistic story, by the way. All this climate change stuff... don't worry for the planet. The planet will be fine. It won't have homo sapiens on it for much longer but hey, I guess we had a decent innings. A shame to scupper it all with a series of own goals but that - to push a mixed metaphor to its limit - is what our current circular firing squad of a human race is hell bent on doing.

And meanwhile, there are short sci-fi tales to lessen the pain.
