Backstory: "Traveled So Far"

Years ago, Arthur C. Clarke wrote a short story entitled "The Star."  It was award-winning and critically acclaimed, and it was even adapted for the 1980s version of The Twilight Zone.  With all due respect to the late Mr. Clarke, however, it's not one of my favorites.  Without recapping/spoiling it here, suffice it to say that its approach to the Christmas story is cynical to say the least.

Sharing Links--Lyndon Perry

My friend and editor, Lyndon Perry, has been a great supporter of Zero Hour from the beginning.  Most of the stories in it were originally published in his ezine, ResAliens (http://residentialaliens.blogspot.com/), and he helped make the anthology itself a reality.  I'd also like to thank him because he just featured Zero Hour on his blog.  You can check it out here:

Link to ResAliens

Good morning!  I just wanted to take a minute to share a link to another blog, ResAliens by Lyndon Perry.  ResAliens Press is my publisher for Zero Hour, and most of the stories in my book were originally published here.  In fact, Lyndon was the one who first proposed the book.  So here's the link to his e-zine, and I hope you enjoy it.
