Temporally Out of Order - more proof that I am still a writer!

May 05, 2015 10:32

Regular readers will hopefully recall the kickstarter for the proposed SF anthology, Temporally Out of Order. It was all inspired by a typo on a sign author and editor Joshua Palmatier saw on an airport phone booth. No science fiction/fantasy writer could possibly pass that without wondering what “temporally out of order” could mean for modern day-or perhaps not so modern-gadgets, such as a cell phone, laptop, television, radio, iPod, or even the microwave or refrigerator!

I was one of the 'stretch goals' and I wrote about what inspired my particular story idea here.

Well, we didn't make that particular stretch goal but the anthology overall was funded (and then some!). So what was I going to do with my idea? Well, reader, I wrote it and submitted it for one of the collection's open slots. To my intense satisfaction, it was accepted and will be part of this intriguing table of contents.
