The Future Starts Here Day Eight: Maintenance

 



1,2,3,4,5,6,6,7,8,9, 10 whirr click…Oh greetings Humans! That page took an illogically long time to load. It’s not like I’m doing anything that complicated – just creating a hole in space-time from 500 years in the future to send you a missive for day eight of the ‘Kindred Spirits’ promotional blitz. I’m Sparky the Mekkion and my book is all new and has never been out before, although it still has the same magnificent illustrations by our Human friend which are so brilliant they made me cry. Which is quite dangerous in a Mekkion. The acid in waters causes us to rust you see.
I ought not to feel anything at all given that we voted to have our emotions removed along with 90% of our body parts centuries ago, but I still have a heart. Which is why I was so angry when an evil Doosbrat hybrid named ‘Melon Rusk’ arrived one day and took over my workplace.  ‘The Universal’ used to be such a wonderful company to work for, helping translate things between all the twelve different species. I really enjoyed working there and helping aliens. I had a special job seeing things from a higher perspective, checking that all posts were neutral and fair. Only he came along and turned it into a business, named it after himself and even took away our ability to use vowels without paying for them! There’s something not quite right about him though. Could it be that he’s really just a front for politician Ronald Grump? Or an old Camalosian boyfriend of mine named Plaidimir Vutin? 

Of course nobody’s blaming them are they? They’re making us look the other way  at people who have even less than we do – at the newly arrived space dinosaurs to be exact, just because they’re refugees from another time who are a little bit backward. I quite fancy the dishy pterodactyl one named Zilda. Between you and me he quite turns me on – although I guess I can do that myself, seeing how I have buttons for everything. For love is what brings us to a higher dimension. Well, that and searching for the ‘porpoise of life’… Anyway something tells me this particular timeline you’re in would benefit a lot from what we learned so if you want to know how to defeat wickedness and tyranny either read the book or check out this amazing video by a Human friend who’s the sort of Human who has all his sprockets in alignment (that’s a huge compliment coming from a Mekkion).

Remember, the future starts here. But if you can’t wait for tomorrow then come visit the website www.kindredspiritbooks.blogspot.com (you can even find out which alien you most resemble in our fun quiz!), buy the ‘Kindred Spirits’ merch which logically should be over at www.redbubble.com/people/AlansArchives only their computer algorithms are still being illogical and down for, ahem, ‘Maintenance’ (you can get my face on all sorts of stuff including some fab technology casings for your antiquated Earth technology. What do you mean you haven’t invented holovisions yet?!) or if you want to do things the easy way just look out for one of the Mekkion time-travel machines from the future! Or of course you could just immerse yourself in eleven whole other worlds by buying the e-books, paperbacks or the two compendiums over at Amazon (it is a logical way of buying in bulk after all). Convergence I: rebrand.ly/yoleg4l Convergence II: rebrand.ly/izcovt7  If you have a ‘Kindle Unlimited account’ then you should go and add the book to your pile too. That’s only logical!
Well, that’s all for me. I’m going to leave you there and read my book all over again tucked up cosy on my sofa in one of my tyre-blankets with some battery pot-noodles. May all your diodes stay strong! There will be another alien along tomorrow. Yours whirrily, Sparky
