"Stellar" first came to me as an image of a boy and a girl lying in a field. I felt like these two had a bond and one was harboring a secret. This later developed into my first Sci-Fi flash fiction story. I was nervous about writing this because I've never written Sci-Fi. But I realized that this story was about their relationship and the Sci-Fi elements were to add context. I think that's what made me like this story. There is a lot going on yet it focuses on these characters who care about each other.
I wrote the first draft of "Stellar" on a flight. In the first draft it was too long and the Sci-Fi overshadowed their relationship so I cut a lot from it. One of the many things that didn't make it into the final cut was details about what Enara and The Adrastus Station plan to use Alaric for.
