Essay on "After This Life"

[scarlettina]

Shortly before the most recent issue of IGMS was released to the Web, Edmund wrote me and asked for an essay about how "After This Life" came to be written. He's just published the essay on the magazine's companion blog, Side-Show Freaks. Read it here. (It's free.) mabfan and erdnase2000 are name-checked.

Nifty. I like how the story came together - and now I want to read the research on teleportation that you did - every teleport is a death? Interesting, fascinating stuff! Well done.

I need to read the whole story, I got drug in and then wasn't sure how to pay, and if I wanted a whole subscription, then forgot about it with cats and plague. Maybe I'll go looking tonight..

...every teleport is a death?

Yep. And now that I know, I'm with Doctor McCoy. No one is spreading my atoms across time and space. Nuh-uh.

Yikes!

Teleportation is my number one wish they could do it, right now today. Damn. I think I'd still do it - I think. Maybe. Well that certainly changes things... do you still have the research "list" handy? I'd love to get a chance to do some reading...
