The forty-sixth of fifty-two short stories completed!
A shorter piece this week (1,094 words), and back into the realm of fan fiction. This is a story that attempts to bring some unresolved closure to the Mariner and Jennifer relationship from Star Trek: Lower Decks season 3. The idea came out of left field, I ran with it, and it turned out alright. Not sure if I’ll revise it, but I’ll give it a few month and see how I feel about it then.
Onto the next story!

Got this 3,985-word science fiction piece done early this week! This was another Star Trek fan fiction piece centered around a pair of retired engineers helped out by a cadre of engineering students. It was a fun piece to write, and I intend to revisit it in the future for possible revision.

Wrote another “aliens already live amongst us” tale, which came in at 3301 words. The story explores the conflicts people from an incognito species might have when they possess advanced technology that could save the life of a human friend. How does one justify giving over the technology when it puts them–and their human friend–at risk? It was a fun concept to explore.

Still on a science fiction kick with a new 2,198-wor short story. This was my first “aliens already live amongst us” type story and it was really fun to brainstorm and write. I might be trying my hand at other variations of this story trope.

Another science fiction piece this week clocking in at 3,489 words. This story touched on duty, mistakes, mentorship, and sacrifice. After finishing it, I was surprised at how much I ended up fitting into it given the relatively small word count. This will definitely be a story I revisit in the future for revision.
Onto the next story!
