A Random World of Delta Capricorni Aa, also called Scheddi
My latest story is available over at Flash Fiction Online. It is an ultra-short (only one kiloword long) decorated with an admirable illustration by R.W. Ware. You may read the tale free of charge, but tipping is encouraged.

I trampled out the crop circle in the north field of the Suttlebys’ ranch, at night, just with a board of plywood and a long rope. I did not know what the signs mean, but I copied them. Took me all night, and the sky was pink above the barn, and my breath was fog. It was October, the best month for contacting, so I was wearing my windbreaker and work gloves. (I would have worn my green skirt to look nice for them, but it was too cold, so I was in jeans.)
