Interesting. Writing short stories based on sci-fi/fantasy is kind of difficult because there is usually so much going on in terms of bizzare concepts in the world that you have created, characters, and plot. It can be hard to inform the reader in such a short time. My fiction professors in college would never let people write sci-fi in hopes of trying not to confuse the other readers in the class that wouldn't know what the hell was going on when they had to critique their work.
