chris_gerribIt kind of snuck up on me, but the October issue of Jim Baen's Universe is now available for your reading pleasure. I haven't read it all, but a few things I have read and enjoyed are:
* Jack McDevitt's short story Tweak is an unusual SF ultra-short.
* In the "Introducing: Stories by New Authors" section, David Carrico gives us the very interesting and unusual first contact story The Quiet Man. It's well worth a read.
* Mike Wood wrote a wonderful short story about a peculiar sense of direction. It won the 1st Annual Jim Baen Memorial Writing Contest, and has one of the more memorable opening lines in SF. The line? "We ran out of tinned spaghetti-in-tomato-sauce less than seven years into the voyage." It's well worth the read.
* Eric Flint has a very interesting article on copyright, part 7 (or 8, I've lost track) of a series.
Since the weekend is upon us, drop on by for a read!
