Thank for your review HedwigStrange,
My passions and sexuality are always just barely concealed just under the surface of my writings. However this one harkens back to feelings I had towards the second planet during my childhood.
When I was a child before the era of space exploration Venus was the planet that captured the imagination. Most people thought the second planet from the sun was the most similar to Earth and had the best chance to support life. I remember experiencing some sadness when space probe fly bys started to reveal the hellish nature of the planet lurking underneath the obscuring clouds.
Now scientists believe that eons ago Venus was very similar to the Earth with planet wide oceans etc. So my Sister Mission is an attempt to recapture the feelings I had for the planet as a child.
