A few years ago I started to write and publish short stories using a variety of pen names. In 2011, I wrote and published over a million words. I write using over a dozen pen names and have published over 700 titles that represent over 1,500 short stories, novellas and plays. My works cover 8 of the 10 categories of the Dewey Decimal system. If you had a list of the most prolific short story writers in all of human history I would easily fit in the top ten - and that is only from the last five years of my output as a writer. Recently I turned my hand to writing science fiction. I love imagining what might be in the future, but it may not always be rosy so you tend not to see the hero saving the world on the last page on my stories. For those looking for sci fi short movie ideas, why don't you try some of my ebooks? There are plenty of new and innovative concepts to discover. Speaking of discoverying... I recently discovered that I am genetically a Saami. I suspect part of that identity, and the thousands of years of isolation from humankind in my genes, also comes out in some of my stories. I write quickly, to tell a simple and entertaining story. I imagine we are sitting around the camp-fire in an era long gone. The story should be sharp and to the point so that it is memorable. I don't believe in filling 300 pages with mindless waffle. I don't plan my stories - I put my fingers on the keyboard and let them tell the story - the ending often unfolds from my fingertips without even thinking what it might be. My favourite sci-fi short stories of the ones I have published so far? I really enjoyed writing 2094, it had been forming in my mind for many years. In 2012, the cover of 2094 was sent to the edge of space on a hot air balloon and then returned - that was a great thrill. The Multiverse Traveler is another favourite and I am tempted to continue on with it into other stories. May I recommend, Androgyne, a recent addition to my bookshelf and a story I thoroughly enjoyed telling, and Avatar Gods which just felt amazing to write. I love the emotion it generates. It really adds to the atmosphere if you listen to the songs mentioned in the story. I also have experimented with putting music to my works, my series Fembot Wars has an album of music set to the theme of the ebook series. I have published the songs under the name of an avatar I created, a musical pen name. I recently began to write short plays for the ten minute play market, I hope you enjoy them. They are usually funny and to the point! Finally, I enjoy listening to music as I write, it provides the stimulation for moods. Here is my writing playlist on Youtube, for those interested... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a3ir9HC9vYg&list=PLJhp5_YdP2W5elxXaHTxZVoUxDNmW_W89 For more information and to contact me, go to my website which is listed below.

    CHRISTOPHER

    Christopher Pence opened his eyes. He realized he must have dozed off in the sunshine; it was a lovely warm summer’s day, after all. He looked at his watch, an anachronistic habit that he liked to add to his daily routine. Of course, in reality, he didn't really need to look at a watch since he only needed to look up and see the time readout on his vision add-on. It was there, printed in the air above his natural vision, all the time. If he looked up, he saw it - but what the hell, it didn’t have the same air of importance that one had when glancing at a watch.

    There were others also out enjoying the sunshine, men and women sitting on the green, wooden park benches, some were strolling around for exercise, or just laying around on this lovely July afternoon.

    Christopher pondered his situation. He couldn't remember sitting on the park bench, but he imagined he must have at some stage.

    He imagined he had walked over from the vast government offices that lay in front of him a few hundred yards away. He imagined he had come over to enjoy his lunch - although he couldn't even remember eating lunch. He wondered what he had eaten, and he didn’t really have any taste of it in his mouth.

    Oh well, he reasoned, maybe it was time to see the doctor and let him know he was missing parts of his memory. Maybe this was the onset of one of those old aging diseases; maybe he was one of those still susceptible.

    It was easy to fix, he just had to present to his doctor.

    He glanced at his watch again, time to get back to work, he figured.

    Christopher stood up and walked slowly to the government buildings. They occupied a vast swath of the parkland, rising five stories high and stretching for hundreds of meters in a wide arc across the park and its surrounds.

    It was a lovely location with pools and ponds, little clusters of woods and forest, modern art sculptures scattered around the precinct - it was a truly perfect working environment. It was a very nice and attractive place to work, and very comfortable, it soothed him.

    Christopher headed for the main door of the building and entered one of the ID booths. Here the systems scanned his DNA to ensure he really was Christopher Pence and not some devilish fiend hell bent on stealing into the building undetected and doing – something. What exactly the bandit was meant to
