Guessing Game IV
Because the last round was ended prematurely by Stephanie using telepathy (details in the comments section), I'm starting another one.
I'm thinking of a short story; it's science fiction; it's a classic, and if you haven't read it you should be ashamed of yourselves.
Stephane has been banned.
That's all.

From that description, "2001" or "Enders Game" or "The Bicentennial Man"
Oops some questions
Do only humnans (and their machines) appear in the story?
Is it set in a universe the writer commonly worked in?
None of the books or stories that you mentioned.
Only humans appear in the story.
As far as I know, that story was the only instance of that writer working in that particular universe.
(By the way, Steph just guessed it again, but is sworn to silence. She hadn't read this one either. Bad Steph!)
I checked. They are all short stories. In the (2 I believe) cases they became books, the short story was first :)
"Flowers for Algernon" or "Nightfall"
Is the author reknown for their short stories (possibly as well as their novels)?
Cat says "Yes, it was Nightfall". Tag, you're it. ;-)
It's in my LJ see above link
