New Hyper Short!

Note to future writers! It is way more fun to write about pandemics than to live through one! Does that mean we’ll stop writing about pandemics as we live through one? Hell no! Pandemic stories are our bread and butter! And who doesn’t like a nice zompoc story to keep them, warm at night?

Never mind all that! Looking for a juicy bit of science fiction horror to break up your daily grind? Then look no further, my friend to this new hypershort! Take a read and tell us what you think!

Space is cold.

Modern Technology Hyper Shorts!

Modern technology is everywhere. In our workplaces, in our homes, in our bodies, it surrounds us, permeating our lives and invading everything we do. After centuries of technology, can we live without it? And with the advent of biotechnology hybrids, can it live without us?

Try on this oh so comfortable and form-fitting piece of hyper-short fiction right here! Each week, we’ll post another hyper-short chapter for you to slip on while enjoying the sublime artwork of Adam Archer!

Modern Technology, Chapter One!

The Circle of Death

Many of my missions end in death. It’s no big deal. I’ve been dead six times now and counting. By the feel of the cold metal barrel resting on the base of my skull, it looks like it might be seven.

I guess it could be worse. I could be married, working a nine to five, and have kids.

No thanks. I’d rather be dead.

Bang!

Don’t shoot! Shoot! Artwork by the unstoppable Adam Archer!
