I was born in England, but have lived in Southern California for many years. I m now retired and live in the Pacific NW in a little seaside city amongst the giant redwoods and wonderful harbor, almost at the Oregon border. My husband and I have one cat, called Midnight and she is featured in two of my latest Sci-Fi short stories. I love Science Fiction, animals, and trying to help others. I publish under Doreen Milstead as well as my own name. My photo was taken right before the coronation of QE II in the UK.
The crimson desert of Mars stretches endlessly in every direction, its rusty dunes sculpted by the ceaseless, but light winds. In the distance, towering mountains breach the desolate horizon like the bent fingers of a buried giant.
Beneath the oppressive red sky, a lone figure trudges through the gritty sand, their suit caked with dust and fatigue. Each step is a struggle against the planet's gravity, similar to Earth's, but a little lighter, and a reminder of how alien and unforgiving this place truly is. The figure's helmet reflects the stark landscape, distorted and warped like a funhouse mirror. As the wind whispers across the barren expanse, carrying with it the faint promise of a dust storm, the figure knows they must find shelter soon. The survival of their mission depends on it.
The relentless sun beats down on the lone figure trudging through the shifting sands, and their suit is caked with red dust and sweat. Every step is a battle against the unforgiving landscape, the howling wind a constant companion whispering tales of isolation and despair. As they ascend a dune, the figure catches sight of something glinting in the distance - a metallic structure barely visible against the harsh Martian backdrop. Hope kindles in their chest, a fragile flame in the vast darkness of this alien world. With renewed determination, they push forward towards this oasis in the sea of red, knowing that their survival depends on reaching whatever lies beyond those distant mountains.
