My latest alternate history short story “Our Gus” is no on-line in Fabula Argentea Issue #54.
WHY WE CHOSE TO PUBLISH “Our Gus”:
Author Zachary Taylor Branch presented us with an interesting what-if story combined with an alternate history. What if Gus Grissom hadn’t died in the fateful Apollo I fire? What might he go on to accomplish as a result?
In this well-researched piece, the author takes an imaginative dive into one possible outcome beyond saving his life and those of his fellow astronauts. What makes this story work for us is that it not only delivers a satisfactory ending, but it also leaves the reader wondering where it could go next based on already changed events. Is this the foundation of a novel?
