Time's a Progressive Barn Dance - Neille Williams
This short sci-fi story of mine finds a man confronted with another version of himself, living the same life in reverse from end to beginning. It explores the concept of time being linear but non-directional. It also asks an important philosophical question; which way - forward or backward - is the better way?
