Second Thoughts

by Teel McClanahan III

This is a story about getting so caught up in love with someone that you stop living your own life, stop moving forward.

Pay Attention -A Zombie Story-

This story contains sex, violence, bondage, pain, fear, humiliation, and death. Death by zombie.

More Lost Memories is a collection of short stories available as a paperback and as an eBook, each connected to Forget What You Can’t Remember by a minor character, a passing situation, or an unanswered question therein. While giving more depth and more details to the people and events of that novel, nine more narratives are revealed. Sex, pain, violence, and zombies, tech support for a flying city, religious prophecies fulfilled, true love and lasting marriage, re-engineered doomsday devices, gourmet cannibalism…
…and a whole lot more.

This is one story from that collection, Pay Attention -A Zombie Story-, which looks at the situation at a zombie readiness training camp during its final weeks of training before a full-scale zombie outbreak. It follows the two men who are tasked with keeping the camp running while the man in charge -The Sergeant- is distracted, and how this lapse of management goes horribly awry. It also gives a glimpse of what happened with Mary, a woman totally unprepared for what she’s gotten herself into, and who goes on not only to survive the zombie outbreak, but to become one of the central characters of Forget What You Can’t Remember. Also available as a $0.99 eBook for Amazon’s kindle, Barnes & Noble’s nook, or via Smashwords for your choice of device & format.

This story gives merely a glimpse of two young people who fall in love at first sight, and of the time-bending company they both work for: Chronomatics. Learn about Chronomatics’ unique services, all of which make use of a form of time dilation to either seem to add more hours to your day (relative to the world at large) or allow you to skip over whole decades of time as though only a single night’s sleep had passed. Learn about the challenges, one after another after another, which spring up to test the strength of their love as though to see whether it can be lost as easily and quickly as it was found. Your conceptions of love and your understanding of time may be challenged by Buying Time.

This story is a single story from a collection of time-bending, heart-rending stories (and essays) called Time, emiT, and Time Again, available now in paperback and as an eBook from Modern Evil Press. It is also available as an individual short story, via Smashwords or for your kindle.

This story is about the inventor of a revolutionary new technology embodied in a device which allows stable wormholes to be created in spacetime, linking any two of them together. Such a device would allow humanity to travel to space for next to no cost, and herald a new age of expansion into the Solar system. It could allow humanity to contact an alien race and attempt a peaceful relationship. But first, before the technology is ever tested, it gets used by a future version of the inventor to create a wormhole backward in time, intending to alter history and prevent a terrible future from ever occurring. As splintering timelines and misinterpreted future events begin to collide, Iteration, Interruption follows the inventor’s experience as he tries to take control of his own destiny – and of humanity’s.

This story follows the actions of a couple who seem to have been together forever, who want to be able to create children of their own, and who will stop at nothing to do so. Involving stem cell research, cloning, mind control, human sacrifices, eventual success … and what comes after, this story isn’t afraid to touch on sensitive issues to get where it wants to go, or to take things even further from there.

In a future where processing speeds allow computers to predict the future and advancements in genetic engineering allow people to design custom children, what happens when these technologies -and a couple who haven’t kept pace with post-singularity advances in technology- are combined to try to create a family? When one can not only select for simple things like gender, eye color, and hair color, but also for likely future outcomes like when and where your child will have their first kiss, or what career they’ll be drawn to, how far would you be willing to go to create the child of your dreams?

In this short story, Harold and Anne are faced with questions like these in the wake of the devastating loss of their first child – created and born naturally, rather than technologically. This story is a single story from a collection of time-bending, heart-rending stories (and essays) called Time, emiT, and Time Again, available now in paperback and as an eBook from Modern Evil Press. It is also available as an individual short story, via Smashwords or for your kindle.

Imagine you could change the direction you travel through time and actually go backward in time. In this story, Brent finds himself able to do just that and, along with his brother Charlie, explores some of the possibilities that ability creates. Together they look at problems of ethics, causality, and the possibility of doing heroic deeds and making themselves vast amounts of wealth very quickly.
