Out of This World

Although the stars have always had a powerful hold on her imagination, Alma Alexander is not often found in the cold reaches of interstellar space so this collection of stories is something of a rarity.

One of these stories is new to this collection.
One of the two previously published stories was listed as a Notable Story in the Million Writers round-up in the year that it appeared in an online science fiction anthology inspired by the NASA-sponsored Launchpad astronomy workshop for writers, run out of Laramie by Professor Mike Brotherton.

These are tales of starflight and of vision - but, as all Alexander stories, they are primarily about the people who live in these wondrous new worlds and how they experience their own universe. We are all, as Oscar WIlde once said, in the gutter - but these are the stories of those who have lifted their faces to the sky and are looking up at the stars.
