Really enjoyed the points here about us constantly telling stories to each other and about stories being where we can explore things for further development in the future although short stories are enough to aim for in themselves, done right, there's nothing better. One of my fav stories of all time is Aldiss'Supertoys last all summer long' on which of course AI was based.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-783878695322864273.post-9583021877890372142011-06-23T01:54:30.097+01:002011-06-23T01:54:30.097+01:00Great post!Great post!Alain Gomezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17531540414270057688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-783878695322864273.post-28365464207255801502011-06-18T15:06:58.327+01:002011-06-18T15:06:58.327+01:00Thanks, James.

Thankyou for your comments. <br /><br />Agnieszkas Shoes, I'm sure there are lots of SF stories of every shape and size waiting to spawn and become films! Do you have a favourite SF short which has been made into a movie?<br /><br />Billie, I write both long and short stories. I find some ideas take off for a long stint, others wrap themselves up in a much snappier fashion. Hope it's my book you're getting closer to and that it lives up to expectations.Peter Salisburyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08822099721305355387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-783878695322864273.post-88424649184675923692011-06-18T03:50:37.731+01:002011-06-18T03:50:37.731+01:00Just popped over to say hello and also that I love...Just popped over to say hello and also that I love short stories but am too long-winded to write them myself! <br /><br />And that I am woefully behind in reading - the Kindle is packed with books and yours included.
