About this project
Shiva's Mother is a 2700-word SF story about one woman's tragic life and career in science, set in the not-very-distant future. It took an Honorable Mention in the Writers of the Future contest some while back, but I nonetheless haven't been able to sell it to a paying market -- so I'm ransoming it directly to you.
If I reach my funding target, I'll put Shiva's Mother up on my blog under a Creative Commons license, so you can read it... and so can everyone else.
It's arguably the best piece of writing I've ever done, so I'd love for it to see an audience. Help me make it happen!
