The Speculative Teachers’ Lounge: speculative stories by educators

From the Metaphorosis Library Collection, an anthology of science fiction and fantasy stories by educators.

These are not necessarily stories about education, but stories by authors whose work as educators informs their writing.

If you’re lucky, you had a teacher who inspired to to read, write, or otherwise pursue your dreams. If you’re not, these 23 folks are here to help. This collection of stories by educators is drawn from Metaphorosis magazine’s first nine years publication. They range from alien economics lessons to magical transformations to ghost capture technology to considerations of Samuel Pepys. But these stories will not send you to bed and sleep!
