And I did it all for forbidden love. Nice use of that classic ending. You had a tricky mess to weave together to a satisfying stopping point (not an ending, as we'll never know if it's the right bag), and you landed it.
"Sexiest thing you’ve ever seen." Favorite line. Clearly, he's a human male convert. 😂Fantastic wrap up, Reena. What a crazy 10 weeks that was. NOW WHAT??? More short stories for you, I hope.
Thanks Meg! I've loved this, although have to admit I was intimidated with all the interstellar stuff and then Bear was taken away :-) by dear Ed...felt compelled to sort of bring all the threads back together and this came to me. But glad I did. Challenged me in new ways. Plus just have LOVED this collab and the community this has brought along.... i.e., YOU ALL. So thank you!!
And YES shorts... I've written a few and sent them off with mixed success. But they are SO different than this ... I will share.
Seriously fantastic wrap up to this crazy adventure, start to finish! The start and end have a lot of grunt work and you and Wil really pulled it off. I love the mention of food again 😂 If it's that bad on Earth, I can't wait to taste some intergalactic treats!
Haha!!! Thanks Brian. Appreciate that because I had some serious doubts about all those loose ends. And I love the food here ... but was bound by the rules so made an excuse for our intrepid interstellar traveler...
I know, right?! Not a genre I get into but felt like I had no choice in trying to bring together at least some of the threads since I was the last one, and then...there's always "time enough for love" :-)
Thanks Wil! I am not a sci-fi writer (yet) so had to bring the whole thing back to earth and heart ...caveat: I did read Heinlein and love(d) him for the similar reasons ;-)

Inside the mind of a CIA agent?
:-) Thanks Michael
So many extraterrestrials! Who would have guessed that when this story kicked off? Nice job wrapping it up, Reena.
