What's My Next Story?

    I was overjoyed to see "I Will Save You" voted Honorable Mention in the 2024 Quarter 2 L. Ron Hubbard Writers of the Future Contest. This would not have been possible without your feedback and overwhelming support. Thank you.

    While the contest does not release submission numbers, they did post that Honorable Mentions represent roughly 10% of the entries. You can see the complete list of winners here

    I recently submitted another story for the third quarter, but while we wait for that verdict, I am preparing my fourth-quarter submission. This is where I need your help. What story do I choose? I have four in mind, so let me know what you think.

  • "Last Era of Man": Josh developed the most advanced virtual reality in the world, but it attracted a hacker who claims to be Lucifer.
  • "The Double Murder of Dr. Flynn": Dr. Flynn travels to the future to be tortured and killed -- again.
  • "Tomorrow's Failsafe": Wayne's only job is to kill anything that passes through the time-traveling gateway, but his world is turned upside down when a family makes the journey into his crosshairs.
  • "Yesterday's Jumper": Joel meets a man ready to end his life because he only lives in the past and cannot enjoy the future. 

    Meanwhile, I must not forget to write. My current project's working title is "The Pod Chaser." A cosmic biologist is called to investigate the bones of long-dead space whales on ancient Earth. I have my notes captured, so I am ready to start typing some words.
