The Mare Inebrium


The Mare Inebrium is a spaceport bar that has featured in a total of 62 short stories in Aphelion over the past ten years. I've been thinking of writing a Mare story for a while, and last week I was struck with an idea inspired by Aphelion's tenth anniversary.

Ten Years at the Bar is another ultra-short story, though not as short as The Last Adam, and will appear in the March issue.

Good luck! The Mare is a nice playground, if you can get the continuity right.

I've written my own addition to the canon - as you probably know. (It's still live at: http://www.aphelion-webzine.com/shorts/2005/11/kittenbox.html) But there was one joke I didn't manage to fit in. I think I might write it up and send it to Dan this evening. Thanks for reminding me.
