Nykkyo Kyhana is an ordinary guy: He has a boss, a job that's a grind, a wife who doesn't understand him and a high-maintenance girlfriend on the side. He just happens to hail from another planet -- one 200 lightyears from Earth and with a history that's inextricably entwined with Earth's future. He is sent to Earth to gather plants for his homeworld's agriculture. That mission becomes far from mundane when he meets a woman and realizes his civilization's survival may hinge on her fate.

As the title suggests, this story is a tribute to cmsix, one of my favorite authors, may he rest in peace. I realize that he only completed 19 stories of the 57 he started, but they are always good for making me smile. The plot is simple: Modern guy dies and ends up in a made-for-TV contest on a planet equivalent to Earth 40,000 years ago. Don't bother reading it if you're looking for a lot of emotional drama. This story is simply for your entertainment.

Contractor Kevin Ross makes a startling discovery in a secret passage in an old house he's about to tear down. Join Kevin, his family, and friends as their lives become "interesting."

Okay, okay. So many readers have suggested that I write a futuristic space-age Lucky Jim that I started several different versions and managed to complete two. This one seems to be the best fit for the Lucky Jim series, although it's a bit different. Space opera set far in the future. While previous Lucky Jims are mentioned, and a general knowledge off the LJ series is helpful, its not necessary to enjoy this story.
