We’re hearing from a lot of you lately, Paul writes, "Being a sci-fi fan my whole life I was often times disappointed reading old time stories. While your performances are excellent, that's not the main thing that makes the stories so good. It's your choice of stories. Keep up the good work." Thanks. Paul Braun - Dairy farmer from Wisconsin. Thanks Paul!
Good to hear from Jack Ford again, "Happy New Year, hope all is well. I very much enjoyed #50 the super short stories bundle, please do more as and when you see fit." Thanks, Jack in England. Thank you, Jack!
