Birthday wishes

Happy birthday, niladmirari! May the next year be filled with many Bardic awards and Kiril's lovely music. ;)

Three short stories

"The House Beyond Your Sky" by Benjamin Rosenbaum is a disorienting and quietly powerful story about faith, universes, and what it means to be God.

2007 Hugo Nominee "Kin" by Bruce McAllister is a gentle story, yet riveting from the first line, and also a musing on alien cultures.

"In Stone" by Helen Keeble is a tale of deep love and the sacrifices made for the good of a people.
