Author Description

In this anthology, sometime in the modern-ish day, a man stands over a trash can with its contents on fire on the wet roof of his apartment complex. Maybe a hundred years later, another man sits in his apartment staring into an ocular abyss, not knowing that within what could have been in his lifetime a cartoonish-looking robot responsible for staving off the apocalypse will rove over the remains of the very building he’s imprisoned in. All the while, a young woman becomes her beloved’s sacrifice to an ancient spirit, and another willingly enters a quiet embrace with no threat but oblivion. Trapped in various stages of past and present and alternate futures, a motorcycle-helmeted-person brazenly ventures into the unknown. But they are only a pebble that sinks as quickly as it was tossed into the water that remains stubbornly stagnant.
