About this project: I am writing a weekly sci-fi story based on the theme of Isaac Arthur’s SFIA videos. It’s a crazy challenging timeframe to create a good short story in, and to do so publicly is even more daunting. I’m just hoping some good stories come out of this and I have fun writing them.
Thanks for stopping by!
