About

It might be about people or things that have been displaced to a time other than their own. The story could even be about someone who’s time is running out, perhaps from a deadly disease or poison. Stories that explore parallel events in time, the nature of time or in some other way are centered around time will all fit in this anthology. Along with TIME as the central focus of the story, it must also fit in one of the following genres: Hard Science Fiction, Soft Science Fiction, Fantasy, Space Western.
