Dread Mondays

Which may explain why I'm posting this on a Tuesday...

No, I think that's a red herring. I just wanted you to know that my story 'Second Amendment', about a sleep-deprived games designer confusing reality and screen with bloody consequences, will be coming out in October in the anthology Dread Mondays from Whisper House Press.


That said, Tuesdays are the most productive day of the week, a fact Business News Daily found surprising - which is strange given it's pretty much a one in five chance to start with, and that's before you work out it's almost certainly not Friday and probably not Monday. So not that surprising at all, really...

My Thoughts are with You. Your Thoughts are with the Authorities for Calibration Against Societal Norms

Award-nominated science fiction and slipstream author Robert Bagnall’s second anthology of twenty-four stories, variously bleak, funny, bleakly funny or – very occasionally – optimistic.


  

2084 - The Meschera Bandwidth

2084. The world remains at war.

In the Eurasian desert, twenty-year old Adnan emerges from a coma with memories of a strictly ordered city of steel and glass, and a woman he loved.

The city is the Dome, and the woman... is Adnan's secret to keep.

Adnan learns what the Dome is, and what his role really was within it. He learns why everybody fears the Sickness more than the troopers. And he learns why he is the only one who can stop the war.

Persuaded to re-enter the Dome to implant a virus that will bring the war machine to its knees, the resistance think that Adnan is returning to free the many - but really he wants to free the one.

24 0s & a 2

Twenty-four slipstream stories.  Frequently absurd, often minimifidian, occasionally heroic.
“Brilliant stories, well written!” (five stars, Amazon).
