My Story on the Moon! Writers on the Moon

O

h yes! It's moon time!

 

The Writers on the Moon are sending stories to the moon! Tentative launch date, 24 December 2023!

 



125 Writers on the Moon and 8 Official Stowaways!

Here are a few blog posts by author Susan Kaye Quinn describing all the behind-the-scenes efforts that went into making this happen:

"The Official README file that went on the payload to explain the project to our future anthropologist

The Making of the Mini Paper Book

The Making of the MoonChip, our hexagonal metal medallion

And finally Shipping to Astrobotic! (and a bonus... we're on Astrobotic's Wikipedia page as an official payload!)"

"Where There's Life", my story on the payload, is now available on Amazon!


You inherit a library card for the Library at Alexandria, and decide to try and visit.
What might you learn there, about your past—and your hopes for the future?

A story inspired by Calliope (Sandman #17) by Neil Gaiman



I completed NaNoWriMo!

I didn't quite complete the project I meant to (oops!) but I wrote a slew of short stories!



Did you take part in NaNo?

Don't forget to check out the other stories headed to the moon!

(I can't believe I'm speaking of the moon in this way, it's so surreal!)

Come next year, you can point to the moon and say that your words are up there somewhere. Neat!
