Life on Other Moons
"As far as I knew, my mother was the last woman alive on Earth the day her heart stopped beating in the produce section and she plunged face-first into the romaine." And so it begins... Life on Other Moons (the author's creative writing MFA thesis project) is a strange collection of short stories about people who just want to find happiness in the complicated, often harsh environments they call home. The stories touch on coming-of-age and parent-child relationships, as well as masculinity, femininity, and love in all its forms. They take place in different time periods and even realities, but careful readers will find links and even shared characters between them. IMPORTANT NOTE: One story ("Looking") may be triggering for people who are sensitive to or have experienced sexual assault. It's intended to be social commentary and isn't explicit, but the author would like you to be warned ahead of time. There's also a warning at the top of the story. This collection is being released on Wattpad for the first time to celebrate the 10th anniversary of its original limited-run print publication. It's now widely available in paperback form through Amazon. Feedback, insights, and other comments are welcome and encouraged! The author is working on new stories and hopes to start sharing them in winter 2023-2024.Complete

But in the silence, in the stillness, something begins to change. What happens when the person you're forced to live with becomes the only one who truly sees you?

**CURRENTLY A FEATURED STORY** highest ranking: #11 in Science fiction ❝true happiness is only achieved without freedom. There is a girl who wakes to a world that she was supposed to protect. Instead, she fights it. There is a man who is cursed with the ability to dream. A glass city is their cage, a city filled to the brim with unanimity and order, a paradise on an earth laid to waste by an artificial snowstorm. Sunlight filters through the glass buildings and through glass walls, pierces glass floors. It illuminates the city square when it is strongest at noon, surrounded by a huddled mass of citizens, all as perfect as the city they inhabit. And they all think: everything is as it should be. And it is. Or, it was. -- long live perfection.❞ (c)sarahgaier2016 #diverselit | #LoveEqualsLove | #helpfightcliches | #freethelgbtq | #badassreads check out my Science Fiction novella, Sector-33, here! https://www.wattpad.com/story/62174094-sector-33Complete
