The GarbageThe garbage pile behind the abandoned steel plant in Cleveland was not a place you went unless you had to. It was a landscape of rust and refuse, of shattered glass and waterlogged cardboard and things that had once been useful and were now simply discarded. The air smelled of decay and something chemical, and in summer the flies were so thick you could hear them. Frank Kovac lived in a shed he...0 Commentarii 0 Distribuiri 3 Views 0 previzualizareVă rugăm să vă autentificați pentru a vă dori, partaja și comenta!

The Twilight of Species(Style: Grand Narrative) The city of Aethelgard was the last bastion of the human race, a sprawling megalopolis of chrome and glass that stretched from the frozen north to the burning south. Above it, the Great Ring of the Elders shimmered in the sky—a fleet of ten thousand ships that had arrived from the first world to "save" their descendants. Julian was the Archivist of the End. His job was...0 Commentarii 0 Distribuiri 3 Views 0 previzualizare

Blood in the MississippiI.The magnolias were blooming again, which meant summer was coming, which meant the heat would arrive and sit on the plantation like a heavy blanket and none of us would be able to breathe. I stood on the porch of the main house and watched the flowers — white and perfect and smelling like sugar and decay at the same time — and thought about how nothing in this place had changed in a hundred...0 Commentarii 0 Distribuiri 3 Views 0 previzualizare

THE PARANOIA ENGINEDr. Henry Webb was giving a lecture on cognitive asymmetry at the University of Chicago when a woman in a dark suit handed him an envelope during the question-and-answer period. The lecture hall was mostly empty — it was a Thursday afternoon in April, and most of his students had better things to do. The envelope was plain white, unsealed, and contained a single sheet of paper. The paper held a...0 Commentarii 0 Distribuiri 3 Views 0 previzualizare

The mansion on blackwood hillThe house had been dying for one hundred and fifty years, and Atticus Blackwood was its last physician. Or perhaps its last mourner. He was not sure which. Blackwood Manor stood on a hill above the Savannah River in South Carolina, a sprawling Victorian structure of faded white pillars and purple ivy that had grown over the cracks like a scar tissue trying to hold the building together. The...0 Commentarii 0 Distribuiri 3 Views 0 previzualizare

The corner of seventhThe thing about Brooklyn is that nobody notices when it ends. Not because it ends loudly. Because it ends the way a neighborhood ends when the rent goes up too high and the bodega becomes a boutique and the bodega guy moves to Queens and the street where you grew up has a new name that nobody uses. Quietly. Systematically. Without anyone throwing a punch. Eliot Rosenberg lived on the corner of...0 Commentarii 0 Distribuiri 3 Views 0 previzualizare

The Beast in the DarkThe fog rolled off the moors like a shroud, thick and cold, wrapping the abandoned mill in a damp embrace that seeped through stone and bone alike. Arthur Winthrop found her there on a Tuesday in November, curled in the corner of the ruined flour room where the great stone wheels had once turned. She was wrapped in nothing but a threadbare shift, her skin the colour of old parchment, her hair...0 Commentarii 0 Distribuiri 5 Views 0 previzualizare

Sample V-02: The Echo of Jazz(A Jazz Age Idealism) The chandeliers of the Azure Retreat cast a shimmering, artificial light over the champagne flutes and the silk gowns of 1924, creating a kaleidoscope of gold and silver that blinded anyone who looked too closely. Julian sat in the lounge, the saxophone's wail echoing the hollow space in his chest, a syncopated rhythm of longing and loss. He was a man of medals and scars,...0 Commentarii 0 Distribuiri 5 Views 0 previzualizare

The Patient from BelowACT I Dr. Henry Blackwood's clinic was on Harley Street, in a building that had been a townhouse before someone with money and no taste turned it into a medical practice. The waiting room smelled of carbolic acid and lavender—two smells that had been mixed together by someone who thought they complemented each other but in fact created an odor that was worse than either alone. Blackwood sat in...0 Commentarii 0 Distribuiri 5 Views 0 previzualizare

The Aurora ProtocolThe wind at Station Zero didn't howl; it screamed. It was a white, sterile world where the horizon was a blurred line between a frozen sea and a leaden sky. Erik lived in a world of titanium walls and humming servers, a climate researcher stationed at the furthest edge of the Arctic Circle. Beside him, in a medical pod that hissed with the sound of artificial lungs, lay Sarah. She was a ghost...0 Commentarii 0 Distribuiri 6 Views 0 previzualizare

Rose woke up and did not know what day it was.This had been happening more often. Not the days—the names. Sometimes she would look in the mirror and not recognize the face looking back. Sometimes she would reach for her coffee mug and forget whether it was blue or white. Sometimes she would stand in the kitchen and realize she had been standing there for twenty minutes, thinking about nothing. The doctor called it early-stage dementia....0 Commentarii 0 Distribuiri 6 Views 0 previzualizare

The Grinding Stone of Fate**Act I: The Rust and the Bone (20%)** Leo lived in the shadow of the Great Gear, a city-sized factory that breathed soot and exhaled misery. He was a "Scrap-Child," born with a withered leg and a spirit that had been crushed long before he could walk. His days were spent in the slag heaps, sorting through the metallic corpses of a forgotten era. One afternoon, while digging through a vein of...0 Commentarii 0 Distribuiri 6 Views 0 previzualizare
