Here’s the set-up:

A scientist at the Jet Propulsion Lab in Pasadena, California, Martin works on the MOXIE project, a Mars rover mission that will help prepare for the first manned mission to the red planet. After Martin’s daughter has started college, his wife, Samantha, acts strangely but says everything is fine. Then she leaves for no clear reason. While he’s preparing for life on Mars, Martin struggles to understand life on Earth. With humor and compassion, Christopher Meeks explores a marriage and Mars with insight.

“I’ve read many dozens of Kindle Shorts, and few of them engaged me as much as the story about the disintegration of Martin and Samantha’s marriage. Kudos on some exceptional writing.” –Jim Chambers, reviewer.

“Christopher Meeks’s quirky stories are lyrical and wonderfully human. Enjoy.” –Sandra Tsing Loh, author (“A Year in Van Nuys.”)
