I'm gonna follow the crowd and go with Potential Energy as a first choice, followed by either Fire and Ice (I know I've seen at least part of that one before, but I don't know how much I actually did read) or Staring Into Space... I think that Potential Energy would be good to include with a story that you think takes more risks, because it seems to be stong based on the idea that it doesn't take that many. I don't know how ambiguous the sff aspect of fire and ice is, or how awkward the POV switch is in Staring Into Space... do you think it would still be awkward if the piece was more evenly divided, since you can't take the switch out? Like if the switch came halfway through instead of 2/3?
Once you decide which ones you'd like to use, also, I'd be happy to read them over for you- although it might take me a week or two since I have midterms going on.
