Recently while on the search for something else, I discovered a large treasure trove of old files that include a bunch of writing from the last decade. Most of it isn't publishable, for a variety of reasons, not the least of which is copyright issues - several of the stories I found were submissions I made to the "Strange New Worlds" anthology that didn't get picked.
While I won't be able to release these stories for sale on Amazon, I do plan on putting them here.
But the biggest discovery was that I found the original version of "The Box". As you'll recall, the whole reason I rewrote the story and released it via KDP Select was because I couldn't find the original to include in "Show Me the End of the World." Reading the story last night, I was pretty surprised to find just how different it is from the second version. But, if you've read "The Box," what's interesting is that the premise of the story actually allows the two stories to co-exist. I'm not sure what to do with this old version now that I've found it. I half gave a thought to packaging it with the new one, but that doesn't seem fair to the hundreds who've already downloaded that.
More than likely, what I'll do is include it as a bonus in my next collection, which I'm already working on in addition to my novel.
