Why she couldn't come
I had forgotten until now, but Netherview Station (setting of "Inclination") has been illustrated before, by Dominic Harman.
The station is also the setting of my 1998 Science Fiction Age story "The Practical Ramifications of Interstellar Packet Loss," which is about a boy 70 light-years from home trying to figure out why his girlfriend isn't there to meet him when he arrives as they had arranged. I was thrilled with the illustration when I first saw it. This was the first far-future, space-based SF story I had ever sold, and seeing someone else's interpretation of my world was pretty mind-blowing.
Check it out.
In one of those stranges coincidences, I really was, purely by chance, listening to a track called "Why She Couldn't Come" when I started this post.

I just sold my first story to Intergalactic Medicine Show (http://www.intergalacticmedicineshow.com) and I got pretty excited when I found out that the story would be sent out for someone to illustrate. It won't be appearing until May, but I keep wondering which scene from the story will be depicted and how it will look.
