A story that reads like the stories that caused me to stop ready Analog some years ago. Not written as was the case with Analog by a scientist, featuring scientists, but by a lawyer, writing about entomologists.
The writing style is very staccato, with short sentences, and the characterisation is simplistic, dialogue basic, and it feels a bit like a Scooby-Doo episode.
More from this issue here.
Thanks for reading Butterflies. I know there is an overwhelming amount of fiction out there and I am honored you found time to read my story. Good thoughts.
You made me laugh with the Scooby Doo comment. I grew up watching that show- the original before Scooby Dum and Scrappy Doo.
By the way, I used to go hiking through the NC State Teaching Forest until the school abruptly closed it to outsiders. Hmmm. You don’t suppose. . .
