Space is big.  Really big.  And empty.  So who wouldn't get freaked out, being all alone in it?

The 1989 team arrives at the house and something stinks.

I'm finally getting back up to speed!

Remember!  Patreons are two episodes ahead - any donation to the show, gets you episodes earlier!

No seashells, I promise

Working hard to get these back on schedule.

Another of the shorts we worked on in the Sunday livestream (twitch.tv/crazyauntjulie, noon-2 PST)

Much thanks to the gaming group that inspired this wackiness!

A quick look at a very unlucky space traveller.

Written and produced by Julie Hoverson

Music by Kevin MacLeod of incompetech.com

In a slightly familiar type of story, a thug from the distant past is bought to an idyllic future because no one does violence any more.

(and he doens't know how to use the three seashells!  tee-hee!)

The Night Sucks more.

This is the final episode we finished.  I ran out of time and energy, and Broken eye Books and Clinton Boomer, while being awesome folks, were as shoestring financially as I am, so no hope of this being a "real job" any time soon.  Someday, when I'm rich and idle, we would LOVE to finish this.

:)

For now, you just have to visit Broken Eye Books and read the hard copy, to find out how this comes out.  Try it!

I promised I would upload these here, for posterity.  I have only so much space to use, so they will be spread out among the atomic Julies. 

These are from the Hole Behind Midnight by Clinton J. Boomer, that I was trying to dramatize.  I ran out of time, but we got a fair way in, and in  a perfect world would be able to finish it someday.

Episode 1 and 2 came out previously:

Space pilots can be as lucky as anyone else.

Homing in on the killer, they need every trick in the book.

Why an outhouse?  It's kind of in there.

The investigation continues and some drastic measures must be used.

Earth isn't always friendly to its far-flung children.

Finally getting back to it.

Assembling the clues to uncover the Count's murderer may be a messy business. 

When longevity makes overpopulation a household thing - a household of dozens crammed cheek-to-jowl - the hope of a little breathing room is all that's left.

In an alternate earth history line, where the Plantagenets never lost the British throne and magic is church (Catholic, of course) sanctioned (but only to carefully vetted and licensed sorcerers), a murderbrings king's investigator Lord Darcy to the scene, accompanied by his forensic sorcerer and physician.

Inventing a substance that could possibly bounce indefinitely was relatively easy.  Stopping it from doing so was not!

If the same day repeats and you don't realize it, how can you get what you want?

It has come to my attention I never posted the final piece of this.

Crazy year, eh?

Attributed to Jules Verne, but probably written by his son Michel, this story (written in 1895) predicted the far future...

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

An ancient find may mean a new hope!

Communication only works when both sides understand the same basic concepts.

A priestess in a fantasy world faces tragedy.

A genius is dangerous enough, but when the genius is also a child?

Just shows how well we treat our vets returning from space. 

What do you do when you inadvertantly cause property damage? 

Final attack, or meteoric end of the world....?

When the army takes to the water, where has the navy left to patrol?

Weird genius.  Machines that can't exist...

Posting this just for shits and giggles...

A game of hot and cold where dimensions and perception are involved.

When someone takes your money and promises heaven, sometimes you end up taking it.

When is a dream a dream and when is a butterfly really a slime mold?

Not about a cat.  Watch out if you're arachniphobic.

If time and space travel were possible, where would the aliens go?  A cornfield?  or something fun....?

The consequences of a bad fall.

no intro - my father just passed away.

An invader kills your family - and even though you suspect, you can't act - why?

Sometimes people have to be cruel to be kind....

A glimpse of a dreamworld, a vision of the future, or something else entirely?

government trust doesn't go both ways.

(sorry about the rough intro - the smoke is killing my voice)

Things can be as plain on the nose on your face - but how often do you really LOOK at the nose on your face?

Beyond Pandora by Robert J. Martin
and
Two Timer by Frederic Brown

Life on another scale entirely.

A new player enters the game...

A taste of Christmas past!

the past comes to life!

Finally getting a bit caught up.

The end of the story of talking to an alien's brain....

Why do we assume only stationary computers - or even useful computers - would be the most likely to independently develop A.I.?

Almost done!

Kids don't know what WON'T work, so sometimes they get unexpected results.

halfway done.

An alien presence can be hard to understand, unless it really WANTS to be heard...

By Noel Loomis

In a world where money has been replaced by a daily point score, what is left to achieve?  Or at least to prove you achieved something at all?

Human - alien communication is trickier than expected...

Telepathy with aliens allows the best exploration.  But what if you miss something dangerous?

Tales of accidental invention....

When everything is replaceable, what makes a man?

Finally finishing off the missing two episodes of the unfinished story...

A tale of revenge...

A story told in an odd set of correspondence.

I'm... not sure what it's about, actually.

In a strange place, anyone can blend....

Short sharp and shocking. 

The oddity of Lovecraft's work - this is a silly melodrama, rather than a horror story, but still has an odd charm all its own....

Perception is 9/10ths of the law....

Escaping the holodeck isn't easy when a sociopath is running the show!

Long before Star Trek, the healing qualities of a feedback-loop holodeck were posited.  Except in the hands of a solipsistic narcissist, it might go very wrong.

[The last episode of classic 19 nocturne Boulevard, since this one doesn't appear on the "episodes" page of the website, it's easy to miss.  And it's definitely a lovely dark episode worthy of not missing.]

A woman's answering-machine tells a terrible tale of persecution.

Warning - triggers

Every experiment in the world cannot prevent the completely unexpected....

Might be happening now - all about protecting our children.

The final fate of the fickle clockworks!

Sometimes what you leave behind isn't as bad as what you run into when running away.

Picking up Hitchhikers can be dangerous, even in the far future....

Lem and Fanshaw find themselves in an inexplicable place and time.... (don't worry, it's not canon)

Jane and Annie have other tasks, and Gerald must still carry off the villain.

An actor teaches an alien to play the role of his life - himself.

Jane and Annie find what's back stage at the clockwork exhibit, while Gerald and the police may have an idea who's behind everything.

What if an alien who wanted to blend in and scout our planet encountered an acting coach?

While writing a book on the superiority of humans to all other so-called intelligent life-forms, an explorer has a bit of a rude awakening.

Jane and Annie try and explain things.

It's a long trek to find life in the galaxy - a nine-year voyage with limited interaction...

Two short stories, one about robot sales and one about being lost in time.
