‘The Kyne Extraction’ out now in Plasma Frequency Magazine Issue 5

The fifth issue of Plasma Frequency Magazine is now out, and I’m pleased to say it contains my short story, ‘The Kyne Extraction’, the log of an alien experiment. You can download it for free here, along with all the other great stories this issue is packed with, and some excellent art.

This story began with the ending. I asked myself why it had happened – and the story emerged. Although I first wrote from the human’s perspective, the story only began to work for me when I changed it to the alien point of view. That was a lot of fun to play with.

According to wikipedia, ‘kyne’ is thought by some to be a pre-modern English word for ‘cow’. I hope you enjoy the story.
