My first story!!!

First Contact is a multidimensional narrative connecting centuries, continents and sub/cultures, unravelling coincidences and conspiracies, computer viruses, and viruses which infect your mind. It details a kaleidoscope of revolutions and counter revolutions, football hooligans and Satanists, mutants and mutilations. Through drugs, drums and dreams, the interface is breached, and the message downloaded, and interpreted. The crew of the Mnemosyne detect a mysterious transmission, originating from a hostile planet. Meanwhile, but not meantime, a group of boys living in a sleepy Australian town realize that they are not ordinary kids, but actually deepcover agents from another galaxy. Intergalactic war is summoning them back home. It seems like pop superstar Michael Jackson is also heading their way! Elsewhere in this anthology, two adventurous spirits try to restore contact with a lost colony of violent criminals. A star goes supernova, sparking panic and upheaval around the world. A frightening apparition is glimpsed deep inside a Yorkshire mine, beckoning "Come back to me!" In nearby London, a struggling shopkeeper meets her dark half and her "bizniss" finally goes ballistic. First Contact is a short story and novella collection dating from 1989 to 2001. It is written in the style of a postmodern "pastiche": a work of art that imitates or borrows elements from a variety of different sources, in order to create a unique style or subvert the original meaning, make connections, and open a textual dialogue. Similarities to real people, places or events are entirely coincidental LOL! Images by Canva and Bing Image Create.

In the early 21st Century, Humanity made First Contact. By the end of it, they lost Earth. However, they survived, carving their place in the sea of stars, hoping one day to finally retake back their home world. The void, though, is a dangerous place. Another alien artifact was found near one of their border worlds, which would lead to another conflict. Would Humanity be ready for this?

The complement to First Contact. Final Contact is the departure, the last transmission, and maybe even the extinction.

Alien action

Nearly fifty light years away from earth, a lone space ship lands at a space port, and the lone human steps out into the first contact being made in the first time in nearly a thousand years.
