Rejected

by V H Mizzell

Overview

This is a short story collection. Not just any short story collection but an assortment of odds and ends that I have written in the last few years trying to get published in magazines.

A Beautiful Day in a Perfect World - Bob wants to go outside even if it might kill him.

Keeping the Door Locked - Because if you don't, the Shadow Man will get in.

The Man in the Wig - An eccentric taxi driver has a particularly bad day.

The Day All the Libraries Closed - A writer can't find anywhere to work because the world faces THE THREAT.

These stories were all rejected by magazine publishers.

I am publishing them here because I can. And because I believe that your taste might be more informed and more important to me than some obscure magazine editor's taste.

About the Author

Born in Mobile, Alabama, V. H. Mizzell spent the entirety of his childhood there, except for a year in Summit, New Jersey. He holds a BS in Physics from Auburn University and almost but not quite an MS in Mathematics from UAH. He has spent thirty years in the Defense/Aerospace industry, most notably working as a Fortran programmer on the Burst and Transient Source Experiment (BATSE) and as a Systems Engineer for the Boeing Company, Lockheed Martin, and Northrup Grumman.

He developed a love of Science Fiction when he found Heinlein's juvenile series in the Mobile Public Library Bookmobile. That was also the year that Star Trek premiered and his big sister bought a telescope.

The Sight is his first published novel.
