Synopsis/Details

Two young researchers named JACK and SARAH share a cramped Quonset hut on a remote and frozen planet. Their stated mission is a search for extraterrestrial life. To date, they haven't found any new life forms and their desperately needed re-supply is long overdue...But things are about to go from bad to worse.

The Other White Meat asks, "Why do monsters always have to be so big?" This story started its life as the unassuming (8) page script posted here, but has since morphed into a two part, novella length, ebook written in not-so-wordy prose. In its entirety, it's a BIG story, an epic Space Opera.

Upon my return to the United States, I worked in construction management, big ticket sales, commercial graphics, and as a packaging design consultant.
