Sandra McDonald. End of the World Community College. (Fantasy and Science Fiction, July/August 2014)
The story takes the form of a college prospectus, and is a treat.
Sandra McDonald. Story of Our Lives. (Asimovs July 2014)
An excellent story which, in structure, mood and tone, minded me of Ted Chiang’s ‘Story of Your Life’.
Sandra McDonald and Stephen D. Covey. The Road to NPS. (Engineering Infinity)
A more traditional SF story than others in the volume so far, but still well told and enough neat touches to make is rise above the norm.
Sandra McDonald. Sexy Robot Mom. (Asimovs, April/May 2012).
Not a light-hearted look at sexbots, as the story initially suggests, as it gets altogether darker and colder…
Sandra McDonald. Seven Sexy Cowboy Robots. (The Best Science Fiction and Fantasy of the Year, Volume Five.)
An elderly woman reflects on her robotic companions.
Sandra McDonald. Beach Blanket Spaceship. Clarkesworld Magazine Issue #46, July 2010.
An impressive story with emotional impact.
Asimovs, June 2009
A strong collection, with the Purdom story somewhat of a struggle.
