Lich McConnell. Also, time to reread The Bicycle Repairman by Bruce Sterling.

Well that was quite the unexpected little treat! Wasn't clear where it was going at first but was well worth just riding along with the feel of the setting until it all came together in the end. Great short story! Thanks for sharing it!
If that's available in print I need to pick it up. If it's not I need to call a local copy shop.
Haha, glad you enjoyed it! I would recommend grabbing his Ascensions short story collection if you can. I believe it's in there and lots of other excellent stories.
