I loved the Robot Whisper. Well written story with lots of background, description and dialogue. Interesting story about a technician.
The ending was great – a bit of twist. Hadn’t had a chance to read the next story but will do.

Thanks!

Meant to say a story about a sci fi writer who is writing a sci fi novel or story and encounters a weird encounter.
