L. Ron Hubbard Presents Writers of the Future Volume 38

This is not just a book. It is not just an anthology of great short stories
and articles. It does not just contain gorgeous sci-fi and fantasy
illustrations for each story.

If you are not familiar with the Writers of the Future, let me
explain.

Writers of the Future is a writing competition for NEW authors of science
fiction, fantasy, and horror short stories.

It is open to all writers. There is NO entry free. The winning stories are
selected using blind judging, so your color, gender, or age do not have any
influence—an equal chance for everyone.

Not only is it a great way for new authors to get their start, it is a
great way to find new authors to read. Which I love.

Here are a few other points that make me love this book:

 

•         Every story is
illustrated by a winner in the sister illustration contest.

•         The judges are top sci-fi
and fantasy authors, like Brandon Sanderson, Nnedi Okorafor, Orson Scott
Card, Kevin J. Anderson, Jody Lynn Nye, Tim Powers, Larry Niven, Katherine
Kurtz, and many more. How can you go wrong?

•         The winners are not only
published, they are given cash prizes and flown to Hollywood for an
exclusive writing workshop AND they are given trophies at a lavish celebrity
gala (like the Oscars for writers). Crazy!

Here are the details about THIS year’s winning stories in Writers of
the Future Vol 38:

In the World of Science Fiction…

…this Anthology stands out for three reasons:

The stories. The art. The extras. Which will you love most?

Standing on the shoulders of giants, these writers of the future have
earned their place in the hallowed pages of volume 38. With 25-award winning
authors and illustrators, this collection is a master work.

These diverse stories will fill you with new wonder.

And a few just might break your heart.

Just imagine…

•         Saving the mammoths is in
your hands—can you conjure the magic to make it happen?

•         You’ve got a
monster BFF—whom you’re hiding from your own monster-hunting
family.

•         You’re part of a
sting, out to catch some bar hoppers who are not only bending their elbows,
but bending time as well.

•         It’s game on, the
fate of the universe is on the line—and you’re about to go all
in.

•         And much more!

 

Think you’ve seen it all? Think again.

How would you like to know the “Single Most Important Piece of
Advice” from the author of Dune?

The beautiful art and writing tips are just as wonderful as the collection
of stories.

Volume 38 is a treasure.

You’ll love this collection from past and future science fiction
masters, because these stories are page-turners.

In the twenty-fourth century, a sophisticated security system called the perimeter guards the outer rim of the solar system. Governed by Titan, a powerful space station, the perimeter is almost impenetrable. Emmeline Augury, an astrophysics cadet on Titan, believes in a family folklore about a mythical device with unlimited power. Her search uncovers an ancient plaque, which reveals a star map of a secret network of portals. But what begins as a scientific adventure turns into a dangerous manhunt when hostile aliens called Orias attacks Titan. Their queen threatens to slaughter everyone unless she is given the device. When the fate of Titan and the seven realms hangs in the balance, Emmeline must make a choice. Will she save her home or the device?

Realm, Book 2

After the Fall, all is left is blood and revenge.

The destruction of the perimeter, and the vanishing of Titan and Prometheus has left the Realm open to invaders. With a skeleton fleet guarding the outer rims of the solar system, all hopes of defeating the Orias queen have diminished. Now it’s about survival. But in a corner of cold dark space, hope lingers.

Emmeline Augury was born to break the rules, and now a fugitive who has nothing to lose and driven by revenge, she conquers all odds and locates the second piece of the mythical device.

The game is on. The pawns are set. As the power of the mythical device unravels itself, who will win? A young girl with her heart set on destroying a being as powerful as the gods themselves? Or the queen who was born to rule the seven realms? The answers lie in the wake of the Poseidon.

In 2045 America is ruled by ‘The Brain’. It’s a country of dried-up rivers, computer project educations, holographs, and robots. Most species have died off and even fresh air is scarce. Children don’t form bonds and therefore can’t love. They become drones – dangerous killers. The answer lies on a road in Pindar Corners but to find it is to risk the loss of your soul.

EXCERPT

I applied for my wife in 2045. Since upper-class heterosexual women were a scarcity, I was lucky to have this option. I had graduated from Penn State Virtual five years earlier, and my parents had been requesting my marriage for years. The Brain finally gave permission for us to receive a file on potential wives for me. “Act fast, Harry,” Mother said. “Before all the good ones in your file get deleted.” I knew that details of many of the women in my file would also go to other men who had recently received permission to marry. As the women were selected, the file would be transferred back to The Brain and held on drives called “Appropriated Females.” If I didn’t act fast enough, I might not be able to fatten my file for another five years. I had always been close to my parents and didn’t object when they offered to help me find a wife. I lived at home because the only housing afforded single people were small three hundred square foot studios. I didn’t feel I needed to exert my independence. My parents had two floors right off Central Park West and my bedroom was on the second floor, all nine hundred square feet of it. I could easily escape to the privacy of my nine-hundred-square-foot apartment and play my ratkill music loud; my parents never heard it. We worked on the file together, well, at least, Mother and I did. My father was indifferent, just said he’d give me his blessing, which was a joke. There were no blessings in our world. Mother and I argued about the physical appearance of this one or that one, temperament and IQ, of course, which was far more important to Mother than to me. It was probably a mistake to allow my mother the liberty of helping me choose my bride. Undoubtedly, I should have kept her out of something so personal, but we didn’t have many friends in our society and I valued my parents. I had to stand my ground though, before Mother paired me off with one of the old ones. Old women had been in huge supply, ever since the popularity of female babies in the 2030s – when choosing the sex of one’s children was in vogue. “I want a brunette, tall, smart and extroverted,” I insisted. Mother disagreed. “I know redheads are rare, and therefore expensive, darling. But think how nice it would be to have children with candy-colored hair.” “I don’t want children with candy-colored hair,” I said and went back to my search. I heard Dad chuckle. Marriages cost the pairing couples huge donations to The Brain, and women with red hair, large breasts and little DNA potential for physical abnormalities were worth donations of several hundred thousand. The Brain had filled my file with fifty possibilities. Unfortunately, whatever taste in women The Brain had did not coincide with my own. I had already exhausted half the choices sent me, a bunch of ordinary-looking women behind the wheels of their Zippies, our popular sport cars powered by high-speed batteries. Or they looked like perfectly bored bimbos who had spent too much time with their plastic surgeons. Then I brought up an image that intrigued me. “Here, look at this one,” I shouted. I maximized the image and double-clicked on the digital features of Adina Cordova. Her face filled the sixty-inch screen while my heart pounded in overtime. Her smile was so captivating, as if she knew secrets I’d never be privy to. Her wavy dark hair ended at her chin. Her eyes were large, dark ovals, at once both sad and lively. “Beautiful,” I whispered. I refused to look at my mother. Instinctively, I knew she’d disapprove. I’d pulled up an esthetical angel, much too captivating for my mother’s idea of good wife material. I quickly brought up her résumé despite the argument that would follow. “Adina Cordova graduated from the Computer Project top of her class,” I said. “Adina Cordova?” Her name seemed to be of interest to my father. He jumped out of his chair and came to stand beside me. “She’s a knockout, Dad.” He didn’t answer me, his expression distressed. “Not really,” he finally said. Mother was immediately suspicious, or at least that’s what I thought at the time. “Smart women can be something of a bore,” Mother said. “Her degree was in journalism, Mother, not in the history and characteristics of the African Bat Bug.” My parents eyed one another, one of those looks between them I was always unable to interpret. “Uh-oh,” I thought I heard my mother utter. But I found Adina’s background extremely interesting. She had lived abroad during her teenage years while her father worked as a chef in Milan. It seems Europe treated Mr. Cordova like a king, extensively praised for his excellence in the culinary arts. Mrs. Cordova had been a dancer but had recently suffered a breakdown after The Brain’s subversion and erasure of the Arts in Europe. When the Cordovas protested the infiltration and dismissal of the arts by Britain and America’s Computer Educational system, they were deported and returned to the States in 2038. Admitted into Columbia, Adina had graduated with honors. As a child, she’d grown up not far from me, but she was three years younger, which might explain why we hadn’t come across each other on those rare occasions that The Brain allowed social integration. “Where is she from again, Harry?” Mother asked. “She’s American born. But her father lived and worked in Europe for a while. They were kicked out of Italy. She was raised not far from us, practically down the block.” “Sounds iffy to me, Harry. Her expectations might be extremely high, and the whole family are rabble-rousers. I know that for a fact.” It appeared to me that Dad was making a real pitch to keep me away from Adina. “Your father’s right,” Mother added quickly. “Don’t think with your penis, dear.” I heard Dad chuckle again as he returned to his chair on the other side of the room. Despite his chuckle, I sensed uneasiness. “But I like her,” I said to them. “She’s different. Something about her I just like.” “You don’t know her yet,” Mother said. “Look at her eyes,” I responded. “But are you compatible, darling?” Mother stared at the digital image before her. “I like the other one, with that engaging smile.” I shrugged. Mother liked the mousey one – heart surgeon, high IQ, and a face I’d seen in an old comic strip about cave people. I clicked back on Adina. “This one is more petite.” Drooling by now, I wiped my mouth inconspicuously. This gal was a knockout and Mother feared I wouldn’t attract her. I was Harry all right, but no handsome Harry, that was for sure. “Well, she is nice, maybe a bit too pretty though. Pretty women can be a bother.” Dad winked. “You can say that again.” I hadn’t expected my mother to get it. I threw up my hands. “Mother, do you want me to search the homely file? I mean, I know the dogs are cheaper, but I really don’t want an arf arf, if you don’t mind.” “No, of course not, darling. If you like this woman, ping her … get your compatibility tested … see if she likes you.” Mother’s eyes traveled back to my father. I couldn’t tell what they were thinking, but each seemed to be able to read the other’s thoughts. “You bet,” I said as I brought up her address file and sent out a quick imail to The Brain, requesting a date with her. Much to my surprise, my father knocked on my door later that evening. I was nearly asleep. “Son?” I sat up in bed and switched on the lamp. He sat on the edge of my bed and stared at me. “You know that I never want to see you hurt …” My father is a large man and I felt myself tipping from his weight. When I was a child, I fell out of bed a few times when he came to say goodnight, but that was before I learned to scurry to the middle before he sat. As if he sensed my discomfort, he rose to his feet and paced back and forth. I wondered what he had to say. “Father, I have a right to pick a woman of my choosing, not one that you and Mother prefer. We agreed to that. I said I’d ask for feedback, not ultimatums.” “It isn’t that, Harry. It’s this girl … she will be different.” I shook my head in disbelief. “What are you saying?” I heard him sigh and return to the edge of my bed. I tipped up again and slid to the middle of the mattress before he tossed me to the carpet. “She will corrupt you, son.” Unable to believe what I’d just heard, I jumped out of bed and paced around the room. My father stared at me wearily. “Just what the hell are you talking about, Father?” “She was raised believing in the absurd and the ridiculous. Her father is a real nut case. The whole family is trouble.” “What are the absurd and the ridiculous?” I asked, standing before him in defiance. My father leapt to his feet and the mattress nearly flew to the ceiling. He banged his hands together and the lamp on my nightstand rattled. “You can’t survive being a rebel, Harry. Not in this world anyway, not here.” “What?” I looked at him in disbelief. “I’m not a rebel.” “That girl is.” “What are you talking about, you don’t even know her.” It was at that point that my father went to the computer and turned it on. He typed in several logins and bypassed several codes before he arrived at a webpage. I almost fell asleep waiting for him to find what he wanted. “Listen to this,” he finally said, snapping me awake. He read aloud from what he had pulled, which appeared to be a newsletter: “‘One in five now is killing. The Brain is responsible. The Brain spreads a disease that must be eradicated. Our children are dying from that disease. What maggots will walk the earth tomorrow? What horror walks the earth today? Be strong and educate your children. Be strong and educate yourself. Conquer this malignancy. Our minds have atrophied, our philosophers are silenced, and machines that have no humanity murder our souls.’” My mouth fell open as I stared at him. “What the hell was that?” “It was written by Adina Cordova.” “So what?” I said. “She’s entitled to her opinion, though I’m not sure what it is.” “Harry, Harry,” My father grabbed me in his arms. “There isn’t room for truth. There is only room for self-preservation.” I broke from my father’s grasp. “Look, let’s just see if we like each other. You’re jumping the gun.” “Your mother is crying in her room,” my father said. “I’m sorry about that, but I don’t understand the great drama you two are embroiled in just because I have a physical attraction to Adina Cordova. Mother is overreacting, as are you.” “Perhaps.” “You want to marry me off to an arf, don’t you?” “No, no, no. It isn’t that at all, son. We want you to be safe.” “Look, I’ve requested a date with her. Let’s see how it goes. Maybe we won’t like each other. Perhaps it won’t be anything more than a rough fuck,” I said. He nodded quietly, kissed me on the cheek and left the room, but not before adding that he hoped we’d recoil from each other. Recoil? I wondered. Who would recoil from that face? I didn’t understand either of my parents’ reactions, and I was furious. But one thing for sure, it wouldn’t stop me from pursuing the only woman, out of a file of fifty, who didn’t look as though she’d just finished a foul lunch

Excerpt

My last memory from that time? That I was never to return to it. 

As I ran to the rhythm of my breath, the beat of my heart provided the music of being alive. I took a hill, not as bad as it looked; steep but short. Chestnut was a single-lane road that cut through the back of town and led me onto Bishop Farm, where I picked up Maple Lane. 

Dotted with sugar maples, Maple Lane wound out ahead of me, and like a lazy letter S, it snaked around for two long shaded miles. The sycamore trees had limbs that reached across the sky like Rorschach spills. The sweat on my back saturated my T-shirt, clinging like a second skin. The road had been nothing but dirt for over a hundred years; though the town kept threatening to pave it, they probably never will. A good part of the trail was a long narrow easement that took me past a mile of farmland. The dirt kicked up a gentle cloud of dust under my feet, soft and dry. The smell of freshly hoed hay and country pine lingered in the air. 

Maple Lane begins and ends at Pindar Corners, a fork in the road with a blinking light. I picked up Robin’s Nest Road from there, turning left at the traffic signal, as I always did. How many times? I’m not sure. But I do know this, or thought I did: Robin’s Nest is the road I lived on with my wife, Adina, and our children, Teddy, who was eight at the time and Lindsey, who hadn’t yet turned six. 

The scent of flower gardens hit me like a perfumed galaxy, overwhelmingly intense, from the abundance of flowers hidden behind picket fences and green bristly privacy bushes, odiferous and colorful. I saw irises, lilies and peonies that tilted in the breeze and slipped their scents toward me with flirtatious artistry. 

Hundreds of times, I have picked up fragrances whispering from the mountains. You see, for me, one of the pleasures of jogging on a country road was catching smells. Even running through traces of horse manure carried in the wind, or the mysterious scents of unrecognizable plants and animals just behind the weeds, scents like that thrilled me. Might be perceived as such a small thing but it isn’t, not when sweet, scented air was such a new thing for me. 

I breathed in deeply. I took in passionflower vines climbing up trellises, a cacophony of color. Sometimes I can catch freshly cut grass and the sizzled scent of meat lingering on a barbeque, whetting my appetite for lunch. 

Robin’s Nest Road is paved and wide, and I liked it because it dead-ends; the only drivers who take it know exactly where they’re going, and trucks are rare. Sometimes, I could run right down the middle with my arms outstretched. Feeling good for me was sweating hard … feeling good for me was pushing up the last half mile, knowing I’d make it. 

Jogging kept me centered ─ going at my own pace, my thoughts a free association of expression. No race to win, just moving through the silence of my mind, despite the rare chatter of birds or the occasional challenge of estival winds. 

The only smells picked up back in New York City were mornings drenched in the stench of garbage and the rancid, putrid odor of the homeless inhabitants who lined the streets of midtown. I tried not to think about that because I was one of the lucky ones: I wasn’t there. And I was where I was because of the foresight of a man a lot smarter than I am. I was in Pindar Corners. A place you might want to be a hundred years from now, or maybe a hell of a lot sooner. 

The reasons why I was there, in Pindar Corners, were too complex to fathom. Mistakes too great to lament. There was no sense dwelling on the past at all. Best to just breathe in deeply and try to let it go. Besides, there was nothing we could have done about it. No, nothing. Just concentrate on the aroma of gardenias, orchids and the delirium of lilac, and forget about everything else. We still had flowers, some species of birds, animals like skunks and rodents. We had life, and most of all, we had the solace and the surety of Pindar Corners. 

However, the luxury of forgetting was the one thing I couldn’t accomplish. I was a generation too late for that. And as I jogged that day, the sound of a distant gunshot jarred the aromatic titillation of my senses. So loud, it practically threw me off my feet. It certainly wasn’t hunting season. I knew that well enough, but there were those who didn’t give a damn about laws. Could have been someone wanting to frighten off a black bear. Then again, plenty of people liked target shooting in their back yards. It might have been some bored jerk shooting cans off a fence. Or it might have been one of the children. I don’t think I was able to let in that fear. As far as I knew, there had only been one murder in Pindar Corners committed by a child. Maybe the shot I heard was just random and unintentional. That was my thought that day: that was my prayer.
