The writings of John N. Crain


"A warm mist descended over the crèche and K raised its head above the polished stone rim. Not much to see, but the moisture made odors stronger. K opened an olfactory port, analyzing the heady mix of scents, some sweet, some bitter, some so strong they could be tasted. Woven through the tapestry of redolence, K detected something new, a thread of effluvium never encountered. K’s primary pseudopod flowed over the side of the nest, following the strange aroma, seeking the source."


From the short story Persistence of Memories.

Now available on Amazon, this illustrated selection of thirteen stories is a record of my hallucinations, waking dreams and nightmares, inhabited by space explorers, lovers, ghosts and monsters. Some are human, others non-human. I'm scheduled to be interviewed and read from the anthology on KMRD radio (96.9 FM) Monday, 24 June, 2019, 7 p.m. MDT. Tune in or listen online. Also, if you're interested in purchasing a copy, click on the cover image on the right side of the page. By the way, the cover illustration was done by my daughter, Abigail.
