I am tickled to report that one of my science-fiction short stories, about using a black hole to escape the pain of a relationship breakup, was published last week by “Theme of Absence” magazine. You can read it free online at: https://themeofabsence.com/…/slow-time-station-by…/

A short interview, with an explanation of the science behind the story, can be read at: https://themeofabsence.com/2022/04/author-interview-andrew-fraknoi/

One of my dreams has been to spend some of my retirement writing science fiction about astronomical ideas. This is my fifth published story, so I guess I might now be able to say that I am launched in this side-career.
