Blurb
A fast-paced tale of a taciturn administrator’s
behind-the-scenes juggle to keep his asteroid from being blown up and to pay
the bills on time.
Memories
before reading
I hand-wrote this story in an incredibly boring meeting
which had very little to do with me, then I essentially rewrote the whole thing
when I typed it up. I’m pretty sure this is the first time I mention Ceres in
my fiction, though. I’d revisit that colony many a time. I remember that the
characters were fun, and that the story was pretty funny...but I don’t remember
the plot. Guys, this is either going to be good, or really, really bad.
Review
after reading
I think this is the kind of story that arises when writers
throw down the gauntlet. “I double-dog dare ya to write a story about the
background coordinator in the over-the-top SF action story. Oh, and he can’t
talk.” ...OK, I’m not going to nominate this one for the Hugo, but I
laughed out loud, twice. It’s a fun story, guys, and I really like the setting.
