My short story The End of Night on Second-Day is available to read in the anthology Gargantua, published by Air and Nothingness Press. The short stories in Gargantua all feature a megastructure and are 1000 words long, a fantastic juxtaposition between the super huge and the super small.
In The End of Night on Second-Day, Lila Cross was the last of her family to see the sun before it was stolen. Her great-granddaughter Hester, like all the citizens of Second-Day, has lived her entire life in darkness. After an encounter with a nocturnal and carnivorous alien leaves her wounded, Hester resolves to liberate the sun from the thieves who stole it, and to live one moment in the sunlight.
