I'm in the process of editing some short stories I've wrote over the past few month. I'm using these to build a collection of what I've written. I figure the length of each individual piece warrants this; I know people really want value for their 0.99.
Initially, I had been writing with a common theme in mind but found it restrictive. I decided I best focus on getting the words on the pages first, let the themes come organically.
Most of my stories take place 'now', that is, in whatever particular time the reader lives.
However, I have two stories that are sci-fi horror. I don't specify a particular time period but it's is obvious to anyone that we don't have habitable space stations on commercial scale right now - in the future, maybe?
Do you think I should drop these from the collection?
