On a distant planet, Ashme, a genetically modified "indigo child" who can control computer systems at will, longs to fight the brutal occupiers of her country, but how can she be a hero when she has to care for her special-needs twin brother?
Brad C. Anderson lives with his wife and puppy in Vancouver, Canada. He teaches undergraduate business courses at a local university and researches organizational wisdom in blithe defiance of the fact most people do not think you can put those two words in the same sentence without irony. Previously, he worked in the biotech sector, where he made drugs for a living (legally!).>His stories have appeared in a variety of publications. His short story "Naive Gods" was longlisted for a 2017 Sunburst Award for Excellence in Canadian Literature of the Fantastic. It was published in the anthology Lazarus Risen, which was itself nominated for an Aurora Award.
