A few years ago, I had an opportunity to write (or co-write with my wife, in one case) a couple of old-fashioned Space Opera tales for a new publication. But that publication never got off the ground.
So now I have a couple of short stories just sitting there being useless. So, I've decided to subject my blog readers to them. I hope you enjoy them:
