Prisoners

Rick Stringer — Sun, 15 Mar 2009 01:24:47 +0000

A few weeks from retirement, a scientist looks back at her wasted life with regret. Now, at the end of her career, she is offered a chance to make a real difference to someone. But she’s been safely sheltered for so long… will she take the risk of a lifetime?

All The Time

Rick Stringer — Fri, 19 Sep 2008 00:04:16 +0000

The watchmaker’s shop is filled with timepieces of all kinds, from the majestic grandfather clock to the most delicate pocketwatch: all the time in the world. But it’s not the many clocks adorning the walls that give him eternity. Or is it?

Birth and Death

Rick Stringer — Sun, 16 Mar 2008 23:39:33 +0000

Birth rules the life of a midwife, but she has also seen plenty of death. When she realizes she is immortal, birth and death begin to look the same. She knows that any new baby she helps bring into the world will die, in time. But she learns to look beyond the spectre of death when she sees the look of bliss on a new mother’s face and gains the wisdom to live in the moment.

Rick Stringer — Wed, 05 Dec 2007 02:27:01 +0000

She has been called whore, harlot, streetwalker, working girl, doxy, courtesan. All are true. She is also immortal. If a girl is going to live forever, she needs to have a way to support herself. But the world’s oldest profession is a hazardous one, and when her latest client’s perversion of choice is murder, she realizes that life is a gift she wants to hold on to.

No World for Warriors

Rick Stringer — Mon, 05 Mar 2007 04:30:12 +0000

War remains a constant throughout human history. How we wage war does not. When a man that has battled with Spartans, Celtic barbarians, and Mongol hordes joins today’s techno military, the question becomes: Is there a place for warriors among soldiers? And when you’ve seen the rise and fall of a thousand nations and empires, can war still hold any meaning?

Life Sentence

Rick Stringer — Mon, 05 Feb 2007 00:17:00 +0000

“Don’t do the crime if you can’t do the time.” But for a man who lives outside the fringe of society, there’s never been a choice. Time is all he’s got, and he’s serving a life sentence of a different kind.

The Gift

Rick Stringer — Fri, 03 Nov 2006 00:11:00 +0000

I’ve heard that the body becomes lighter at the moment of death. Just a little, but enough to measure. As if the soul could be weighed, its departure verified. I look closely, to see if I can detect its ascent…
