    Prompt: Write a 10,000 word1 short story about an asetroid
    miner marooned on an asteroid. Narrate in first person. The
    miner has a wry, ironic, and detached demeanor, but he
    really pines for his family back home. He has a number of
    robots to keep him company, including one which helps him
    with sexual needs, but as he becomes more aware of how
    inextricably marooned he is, he starts to think about
    descending through Dante's circles of hell. The overall
    message is one of increasing existential despair, akin to
    Sartres No Exit. Now, this is a science fiction story, but
    I want it to be a well-written, *literary* science fiction
    story--think something akin to Alastair Reynolds' style.
