In September, I announced that Flash Point SF had selected my short piece “Remember-Me-Not” as their final story of 2024. That time has now come so you can read my story by following the link under the teaser:
Remember-Me-Not
by Karl El-Koura
With effort Rick kept his face flat, but he couldn’t believe that Mr. Carlson was back again.
Sheepishly, the middle-aged man in his poorly pressed suit shambled over to the reception desk of Memories, Incorporated.
Rick couldn’t allow reception to get a hold of him again; he intercepted the man and brought him to his desk, unnecessarily telling the robot-receptionist that he had this one.
Mr. Carlson seemed at a loss for words.
“Have a seat, please.”
That seemed to help break the log-jam between the man’s mind and mouth. Still standing, he blurted out, “Yes, well, I’ve never been in love.”
