Short Story Press presents Waiting for Martin by Ona Jo-Ellan Bass
Waiting for Martin is set in a nebulous future-never in which catastrophic environmental change has returned ancient beings to Earth, as well as raining down a disastrous helping of new ones. A family of children try to make their way home to their older brother, who is their guardian, when a bit of environmental fallout gets in their way. Some personal changes make the journey even more interesting for the one “normal” member of the family.

This story is a tribute to the many hours my mother spent reading aloud and telling stories to me and to the hours I have spent hearing the new stories written by my own children.
