Main Fiction: "The Kaleidoscope City" by Doug C. Souza.

This story first appeared in Asimov\'s in December, 2019.

Doug C. Souza has been published three times in Asimov\\u2019s with my Novelette \\u201cMountain Screamers\\u201d and short stories \\u201cThe Callisto Stakes\\u201d and "The Kaleidoscope City." He won first place in the Writers of the Future Contest with his short story \\u201cThe Armor Embrace,\\u201d which is included in their 2017 anthology. Each of the above mentioned stories has been performed on StarShipSofa.

Doug C. Souza wrote this story after his dad had a rough bout with his chemotherapy treatment. His father made it through, but it was a scary time. Mr. Souza wanted to capture the moments he shared when he used to go on hikes with his dad--except this time, he wanted to walk somewhere besides Earth. Ironically, Mr. Souza\\u2019s three-year-old daughter started asking about visiting other planets around the same time. 

This is why Mr. Souza loves writing. Not only was he able to see the story as a child walking with their parent, but the parent getting to take one last adventure with their child.
