Hi everyone! I am entering the #BlogBattle writing contest with the Episode 4 of my Sci Fi mini-series “Million Deaths of Lt. Mazula“! It’s my third submission to the contest, and I am growing to like it a lot.  Every week the contest host Rachael Ritchey offers a prompt word to build your story around. This week it is ‘chasm’. I am cheating a bit because I wrote  the episode a little earlier, but oddly it does have the prompt word in it.  I am not sure how it would work for the readers to dive in when the story already somewhat progressed, so I have the synopsis and links to the previous episodes here.

My BlogBattle #48 submission:
