Now Arriving Andromeda Spaceways Flight #39


The second of two issues of Andromeda Spaceways Inflight Magazine with Dr. Phil stories arrived in the P.O. Box. My short story "In The Blink Of An Eye" appears in ASIM Issue #39.

Quick -- Turn To Page 61 And Start Reading!


A Murder Mystery Where There Is No Body... Yet
    "So where’s the body?" Cooper asked as they got into the armored police cruiser. "I’d like to see it before you give me any case details."
    "We can’t show you."
    "You don’t have the body?"
    "No, sir. We have the body. We just can’t show you yet."
    "Detective -- you’re starting to annoy me."
    "Sorry, sir..."
    "And stop this sir crap. That’s equally annoying."
    "Sorry, Dr. Cooper."
    The other detective, Bates, finally spoke. "It’ll be much clearer at HQ than the crime scene, Dr. Cooper."
    "Just Cooper will do. We all work for the same side," Cooper said. "Now why can’t you show me the dead man?"
    "Because he’s not dead yet."
    Cooper nearly got angry. "Then how do you know with such certainty he’s going to be murdered?"
    "Because he’s sealed in a stasis tube -- along with the speeding bullet which is aimed directly towards his brain."
    Stan Cooper blinked twice without speaking.
    "And the murderer is your old pal, Seth Caputo."
    Now Cooper was interested.


You interested, too? I have a subscription, so I just got my copy -- even here in the U.S. You can get a six-issue subscription, too, which is a helluva deal especially if you ask that it begin backdated to include my stories in both issues #38 and #39. But you can also order single issues and PDF versions. See http://www.andromedaspaceways.com/ for details. Note: Issue #38 is current available in both print and PDF, though not long for the latter. The PDF version of Issue #39 will be available "soon".

Enjoy!

Congrats, Dr. Phil. Great cover. I knew you were in here as my good friend Linda Steele was reading me the table of contents from her contributor's copy yesterday over the phone. And I said, "I have two Super-Sekrit Friends in this issue!" :-)

I'd check out your friend's story, but Mrs. Dr. Phil borrowed my subscriber copy as she headed out the door to the night class she's sitting in on -- something to read on the bus. (grin)

And thanks!

You must trust Mrs. Dr. Phil an awfully lot to let her take your only copy on the bus. ;-)

My friend is sending me a copy of ASIM so I'll be reading your story soon!

(a) With my life. (b) I'll get my contributor copies plus I'll buy the PDF when it is available.

Besides, I'll let you in on a little secret: I know what happens in the story. (grin)

I like it. Freezing time definitely raises some philosophical questions that are fun to play with.

Congrats on the double pubble! I mean, double publication!

I like double pubble. I do my file updating with a command line prompt and tons of DOS batch files. The shortcut to my Publications directory is called pubbers -- short and easy to type. (grin)

And many more pubbers to come!

Indeed -- that is the plan.

Congrats Dr. Phil! I've enjoyed your stories in Analog and WOTF, now I have a new one to read. Fun!

Thanks about the icon. My son in law designed it, based on a flower in one of my WOTF finalist stories. (Unpublished, alas.)

A lot of LJ icons, mine included, are mere representations of larger pictures, reduced to fit in a 100x100 pixel box. This one I'm using is an unreadable cover to ASIM #39. (grin) It's purpose is purely promotional.

But I find that yours has subtlety and shading and even in the small space alloted, it's complete and complex unto itself. Cool!
