#WritersCoffeeClub Apr29. Have you ever written anything that didn’t age well?
I wrote a short about a man with camera/computer augments as aids for retinitis pigmentosa. The implant tech was being developed by a German company.
The mag that pubbed it (Jim Baen's Universe) had it in their pub process for almost four years. By the time it was finally pubbed, the tech was implanted in about 50 users in the EU.
Sadly, that company went bankrupt, stranding the users who had it. /cautionary tale
