I am tickled to report that The Worlds Within magazine has just published my science-fiction story “Who Speaks for Earth.” It concerns a Congressional hearing about a future President, who had to bomb a radio telescope owned by a religious group that insisted on answering an alien message Earth received without consulting anyone else.
You can see it at: https://theworldswithin.net/who-speaks-for-earth/ Scroll down from the cover image to get to the story. I hope you enjoy it.
This is my 12th published story and one of my favorites. To see links to all my published stories, go to: http://bit.ly/sfbyfraknoi
For your amusement, I might also mention that some of the names in the story are drawn from characters in my favorite TV show, The West Wing. I never use the full names, but if you are devoted fan of the show, you will find first or last names scattered throughout as a little tribute.
